Answer:

[-9 ≤ x] or [x ≥ -9]

Explanation:

QUESTION :-

Find the solution set of →
(1)/(3) x - 4 \leq 2+ x

SOLUTION :-

  • Simplify the L.H.S.


=> (x-12)/(3) \leq x + 2

  • Multiply both the sides by 3


=> (x - 12)/(3) * 3 \leq 3(x + 2)


=> x - 12 \leq 3x +6

  • Substract 'x' from both the sides


=> x - 12 - x \leq 3x + 6 -x


=> -12 \leq 2x + 6

  • Substract 6 from both the sides.


=> -12 - 6 \leq 2x + 6 - 6


=> -18 \leq 2x

  • Divide both the sides by 2.


=> (-18)/(2) \leq (2x)/(2)


=> -9 \leq x or
x \geq -9

1/3x*3-4*3≤ 2*3+x*3

x-12≤6+3x

-12-6≤3x-x

-18/2≤2x/2

-9≤x

OR

1÷3x-4≤ 2+x

x-12≤6+3x

-12-6≤3x-x

-18/2≤2x/2

-9≤x
