Answer:

x ≤ 17

Explanation:

This is the same as solving an equation, except instead of and equal sign it's an arrow.

We have to evaluate everything in the parenthesis first.

3x - 2 (x + 1) ≤ 15

3x - 2x - 2 ≤ 15

Next, we combine like terms - x's

3x - 2x - 2 ≤ 15

x - 2 ≤ 15

Combine like terms - constants (add 2 to both sides)

x - 2 ≤ 15

x ≤ 17
