Math Problem Statement

−4≥x−11

Solution

To solve the inequality 4x11-4 \geq x - 11, we can isolate xx by performing the following steps:

  1. Add 11 to both sides to get rid of the 11-11 on the right-hand side: 4+11x11+11-4 + 11 \geq x - 11 + 11 Simplifying this: 7x7 \geq x or equivalently: x7x \leq 7

Thus, the solution to the inequality is: x7x \leq 7

Tip:

When solving inequalities, always be careful with the direction of the inequality, especially when multiplying or dividing by a negative number—it reverses the inequality sign.
