3x-8 ≤ -7 Solve inequality

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add 8 to both sides of '=' then divide both sides by 3

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

you'd solve, like you'd solve any other linear equation more or less

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is my answer x ≥ 3

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

so, the answer would be x ≤ 1/3 or, in alternate form, 3x ≤ 1 :)

1/3?

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

yes x ≤ 1/3 :D or 3x ≤ 1 :) they are both the same :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

suppose so but when they ask to solve they usually mean find the values of x.

OpenStudy (charlotte123):

^ so its x ≤ 1/3 :)
