Answer:

Explanation:

A solution set is the set of values which satisfy a given inequality. It means, each and every value in the solution set will satisfy the inequality and no other value will satisfy the inequality.

Example:

Solve 2x + 3 ≤ 7, where x is a natural number.

Solution:

2x + 3 ≤ 7

Subtracting 3 from both the sides,

2x ≤ 4

Dividing both sides by 2,

x ≤ 2

Since x is a natural number,

Solution set = {1,2}.
