Answer 1

-x - 9 $\geq 5$

You want to get x by itself.

First subtract 9 from both sides of the equation.

-x - 9 $\geq 5$
    +9                 +9

-x $\geq 14$

Then divide -1 on both sides.

-x/-1 $\geq 14/-1$

I'm pretty sure when you divide a negative number when solving inequalities, you switch the sign.

x $\leq 5$
