Math Problem Statement

solve the inequality for x -30>_6x-6

Solution

To solve the inequality 306x6-30 \geq 6x - 6, follow these steps:

  1. Add 6 to both sides: 30+66x-30 + 6 \geq 6x 246x-24 \geq 6x

  2. Divide both sides by 6: 246x\frac{-24}{6} \geq x 4x-4 \geq x

This can also be written as: x4x \leq -4

Final Answer:

x4x \leq -4
