Question

I need help. Look at picture above

Answer 1

Let’s do 3x - 8 ≤ 23 first.

You need to rearrange this so that x is on its own.

+8 to both sides

3x ≤ 31

/3 on both sides

x ≤ 31/3

Then the second, -4x + 26 ≥ 6

-26 from both sides

-4x ≥ -20

/-4 on both sides

x ≥ 5

So x is greater than or equal to 5, which can also be written as 5 ≤ x

And for the first one, x is less than or equal to 31/3, which can still be written as x ≤ 31/3, so your final answer is:

5 ≤ x ≤ 31/3
