To solve these inequalities, we can treat them individually and then find their intersection.
31 ≥ -4x + 7
Subtracting 7 from both sides, we get:
24 ≥ -4x
Dividing both sides by -4 and flipping the inequality sign since we are dividing by a negative number gives us:
-6 ≤ x
Now let's solve the second inequality:
-4x + 7 > -13
Subtracting 7 from both sides:
-4x > -20
Dividing both sides by -4 and flipping the inequality sign gives us:
x < 5
Now let's find the intersection of the two inequalities:
Since -6 ≤ x and x < 5, the common range of values that satisfy both inequalities is:
-6 ≤ x < 5
31≥−4x+7and
−4x+7>−13
