Answer 1

To solve the inequality |x + 6 ≥ 5, subtract 6 from both sides, yielding x ≥ -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality |x + 6 ≥ 5, we need to isolate the variable x. First, we can subtract 6 from both sides of the inequality:

|x + 6 - 6 ≥ 5 - 6

|x ≥ -1

The solution to the inequality is x ≥ -1, which represents all values of x greater than or equal to -1 on the number line.
