Answer 1

To solve the absolute value inequality \(3|7x| + 8 \leq 6\), we start by isolating the absolute value term.

1. Subtract 8 from both sides:
\[
3|7x| \leq 6 - 8
\]
\[
3|7x| \leq -2
\]

2. Divide both sides by 3:
\[
|7x| \leq -\frac{2}{3}
\]

Since the absolute value of any expression cannot be negative, \( |7x| \leq -\frac{2}{3} \) implies that there are no values of \( x \) that satisfy this inequality.

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is:

**no solution**.
