Answer 3

\[\ge \] greater than or equal to sign
so \[\huge\rm 2(x-1) \ge -12\]
now here you can divide both sides by 2
or you can distribute parentheses by 2
better to divide by 2 both sides

Answer 4

and then solve for x

Answer 5

remember when you divide or multiply by negative number then you should flip the inequality sign
