Subtract 7 on both side
Divide 3 from both sides
X should be >= to 1


Subtract 9 from both sides
Divide -4 from both sides
X should be =< 2

Answer:

No solution

Explanation:

Solve each inequality separately


10 \geq &nbsp;7 + 3x

Subtract 7 from both sides


3 \geq 3x

Divide both sides by 3


1\geq x


x\leq 1

Now solve the second inequality


9-4x \leq &nbsp;1

Subtract 9 from both sides


-4x \leq -8

Divide both sides by -4. when we divide by negative number then reverse the inequality sign.


x\geq 2


x\leq 1 and
x\geq 2

There is no intersection of both inequalities

So , No solution
