-2x + 5 ≤ 11

1 answer

To solve this inequality, you want to isolate the variable "x" on one side of the inequality symbol.

Starting with: -2x + 5 ≤ 11

Subtracting 5 from both sides: -2x ≤ 6

Dividing both sides by -2 (note that since you are dividing by a negative number, you need to flip the inequality symbol): x ≥ -3

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x is greater than or equal to -3.
