Question

solve:2(x – 3) ≥ 5 – (x + 3)

Answer 1

open up the parenthesis:
\[2x-6 \ge 5-x-3\]
can you proceed from here?

Answer 2

no :/

Answer 3

OK, first get the like terms to one side, we can put the unknowns(those with x) on the LHS and the knowns on the RHS, such that:
\[2x+x \ge 5-3+6\]
got it up to there?

Answer 4

I think I did it wrong, I got 2.67

Answer 5

you're somehow right, but this is an inequality, so the answer should be:
\[x \ge 2.67\]

Answer 6

Cool! Thanks.

Answer 7

\[3x \ge 8\]
divide all through by 3
\[x \ge 2.67\]
