Question

11 - 3x is greater than or equal to 32

Answer 1

x ≤ -7

Explanation:

Symbolically, we have 11 - 3x ≥ 32

and we can solve this for x as follows:

Add 3x to both sides. We get:

11 - 3x + 3x ≥ 32 + 3x

Then 11 ≥ 32 + 3x

Reversing the order, we get 3x + 32 ≤ 11

Subtracting 32 from both sides, we get:

3x ≤ -21

Finally, dividing both sides by 3 yields:

x ≤ -7
