Question

Please solve the following inequality 2(3 - x) ≥ 14

Answer 1

-4

Explanation:

6-2x≥14 (/expand )

-2x≥14-6=-2x≥8

x≤8/-2=-4

Answer 2

x ≤ -4

Explanation:

2(3 - x) ≥ 14

Divide by 2

2/2(3 - x) ≥ 14/2

(3 - x) ≥ 7

Subtract 3 from each side

3-x-3 ≥ 7-3

- x ≥ 4

Divide each side by -1, remembering to flip the inequality

x ≤ -4
