Answer:

To solve the inequality 7x - 1 <= -50, we'll start by isolating x on one side of the inequality.

Add 1 to both sides: 7x <= -49

Divide both sides by 7: x <= -7

So the solution to the inequality is x <= -7.

This means that x can be any value less than or equal to -7. For example, -7, -8, -9, -10, etc. It is also possible to express this as an interval notation, which is (-∞, -7].
