Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Find the solution set for the inequality 2x + 5 ≤ 3x - 1.
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: 2x + 5 ≤ 3x - 1.
  • Step 2: To isolate x, first move all terms involving x to one side. Subtract 2x from both sides: 5 ≤ 3x - 2x - 1.
  • Step 3: Simplify the right side: 5 ≤ x - 1.
  • Step 4: Now, add 1 to both sides to isolate x: 5 + 1 ≤ x.
  • Step 5: Simplify the left side: 6 ≤ x.
  • Step 6: This can be rewritten as x ≥ 6, which is the solution set.
