Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Find the solution set for the inequality -3x + 1 ≤ 4.
Correct Answer: x ≥ -1
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality -3x + 1 ≤ 4.
  • Step 2: Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate the term with x. This gives you -3x ≤ 4 - 1.
  • Step 3: Simplify the right side. Now you have -3x ≤ 3.
  • Step 4: Divide both sides by -3. Remember, when you divide by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign. So it becomes x ≥ -1.
  • Step 5: Write the solution set. The solution is x is greater than or equal to -1.
