Question

`- 3x + 2 \leqslant 17`
step by step​

Answer 1

−3x+2≤17
Step 1: Subtract 2 from both sides.
−
3x+2−2≤17−2

−3x≤15

Step 2: Divide both sides by -3.
−3x/3≤15/3

x≥−5

Answer 2

x ≥-5

Explanation:

- 3x + 2≤ 17

Subtract 2 from each side

- 3x + 2 -2 ≤ 17-2

-3x ≤15

Divide each side by -3, remembering to flip the inequality

-3x/-3 ≥15/-3

x ≥-5
