Question

(4x+3)/4 - (2x-8)/9 is greater than or equal to -3
I have to solve the inequality and then write the solution set as interval notation.

I know i have to get the denominator to be the same, so now i have it as:

(44x -5)/36 is greater than or equal to -12/36

im not sure what to do from here

Answer 1

I get (45x-8x+27+32)/36 >= -3

Answer 2

which simplifies to
(37x+59)/36 >= -3

Answer 3

now multiply both sides by 36

Answer 4

then subtract both sides by 59 and finally divide both sides by 37
what do you get?

Answer 5

i got x >= -167/37
