I need help with this, please!

3x – 1 ≥ 8
Select the appropriate response
A)3x ≥ 3
B)x≥9
C)x≥5
D)x≥3

Answer 1

Option D:
`x \geq 3` is the solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is
`3 x-1 \geq 8`

We need to determine the solution of the expression.

Solution:

The solution of the expression can be determined by solving the expression for the variable x.

Thus, we have,

`3 x-1 \geq 8`

Adding both sides of the expression by 1, we get,

`3x\geq 9`

Dividing both sides of the expression by 3, we get,

`x \geq 3`

Thus, the solution of the expression is
`x \geq 3`

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
