Question

How do you solve `\frac{x}{- 3} + 5\geq 6`?

Answer 1

`x <= -3`

Explanation:

Given
`color(white)("XXX")x/(-3)+5 >= 6`

You can add or subtract the same amount to both sides of an inequality without effecting the validity or orientation of the inequalty.
Subtract `5` from both sides:
`color(white)("XXX")x/(-3) >= 1`

Multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality reverses the direction of the inequality.
multiply both sides by `(-3)`
`color(white)("XXX")x <= -3`
