Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Solve the inequality 5 - x ≥ 1.
Correct Answer: x ≤ 4
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality 5 - x ≥ 1.
  • Step 2: To isolate -x, subtract 5 from both sides. This gives you -x ≥ 1 - 5.
  • Step 3: Simplify the right side. 1 - 5 equals -4, so now you have -x ≥ -4.
  • Step 4: To solve for x, multiply both sides of the inequality by -1. Remember, when you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign. This changes -x to x and -4 to 4, giving you x ≤ 4.
