Question

What is -2x-7 greater than or equal to 41 simplified?

Answer 1

-2x - 7 ≥ 41          Add 7 on both sides

-2x - 7 + 7 ≥ 41 + 7

-2x ≥ 48              Divide -2 on both sides to get "x" by itself

x ≤ -24

[when you divide or multiply a negative number to both sides of an inequality, the sign is flipped]
