Identify the line that contains the error in this solution and correct the work for that line. Line 1: - 2 (x + 1) - 3 is greater than or equal to 11 Line 2: - 2 x + - 2 - 3 is greater than or equal to 11 Line 3: - 2x + - 5 is greater than or equal to 11 Line 4: - 2 x is less than or equal to 16 Line 5: x is less than or equal to negative 8

Line 3, becuase in line 2, + (-2) = -2 -3 = -5 So it should be -2x - 5

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Ohh wait

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Yes, in line 3 because he probably thought that because he was adding the sign would change. The over all answer is. x is less than or equal to -8
