Solve for xx and graph the solution on the number line below.

1, is greater than or equal to, start fraction, x, divided by, 3, end fraction
1≥
3
x

1 answer

To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the inequality.

1 ≥ x/3

To get rid of the fraction, we can multiply both sides by 3:

3 * 1 ≥ 3 * (x/3)

3 ≥ x

Therefore, x ≤ 3.

Graphing this solution on the number line:

<-------------------●=======>
-3 0 1 2 3

The circle at 3 is filled because the inequality is inclusive of 3.
