Step 1: Subtract 5 from both sides of the inequality.
-3x + 5 - 5 ≤ 23 - 5
-3x ≤ 18
Step 2: Divide both sides of the inequality by -3. Remember that when you divide an inequality by a negative number, you need to reverse the inequality symbol.
-3x/-3 ≥ 18/-3
x ≥ -6
Step 3: The solution to the inequality is x ≥ -6.
Step 4: Graph the solution on a number line. Mark a closed circle at -6 and shade to the right since the inequality is "greater than or equal to."
