Answer:

X ≥ 3

Explanation:

First you simplify, as if the ≤ is an = (just don't multiply with a negative number)

27 = 7X + 6

27 - 6 = 7X

21 = 7X

3 = X

Then you put the ≤ back in

3 ≤ X

and put the X up front. The ≤ then swaps into a ≥

Finally, you can do a test with X = 2 (should be false) and X=4 (should be true), to check wether you made any mistakes.
