Math Problem Statement
Solve for x
Solution
The inequality shown in the image is:
Let's solve it step by step:
-
Distribute the 3 on the left side:
-
Move all the x terms to one side (subtract 3x from both sides):
-
Move constant terms to the other side (add 4 to both sides):
-
Solve for x (divide both sides by 2):
Thus, the solution to the inequality is:
