Math Problem Statement

Ratkaise epäyhtälö 6x - 7 ≤ 2x + 1.

Solution

The inequality shown in the image is:

6x72x+16x - 7 \leq 2x + 1

Let's solve this step-by-step.

Step 1: Move all terms involving xx to one side of the inequality

We subtract 2x2x from both sides:

6x72x2x+12x6x - 7 - 2x \leq 2x + 1 - 2x

This simplifies to:

4x714x - 7 \leq 1

Step 2: Move the constant terms to the other side

We add 7 to both sides to eliminate the 7-7:

4x7+71+74x - 7 + 7 \leq 1 + 7

This simplifies to:

4x84x \leq 8

Step 3: Solve for xx

Now, divide both sides by 4:

x84x \leq \frac{8}{4}

Simplifying:

x2x \leq 2

Final Answer:

The solution to the inequality is:

x2x \leq 2
