Final answer:

-1 is not a solution of the inequality x + 3 ≥ 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine whether -1 is a solution of the inequality x + 3 ≥ 4, we substitute -1 for x in the inequality and check if the resulting statement is true or false.

  1. Replace x with -1 in the inequality: (-1) + 3 ≥ 4
  2. Simplify: 2 ≥ 4
  3. The statement 2 ≥ 4 is false.
  4. Therefore, -1 is not a solution of the inequality x + 3 ≥ 4.
