Math Problem Statement

−10+3x≥−4

Solution

We solve the inequality step by step:

Given inequality:

10+3x4-10 + 3x \geq -4

Step 1: Add 10 to both sides

10+3x+104+10-10 + 3x + 10 \geq -4 + 10

3x63x \geq 6

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3

3x363\frac{3x}{3} \geq \frac{6}{3}

x2x \geq 2

Final Answer:

x2x \geq 2

This means the solution set is all values of xx greater than or equal to 2.
