To solve the absolute value inequality \(3|7x| + 8 \leq 6\), we start by isolating the absolute value term.
-
Subtract 8 from both sides: \[ 3|7x| \leq 6 - 8 \] \[ 3|7x| \leq -2 \]
-
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.
