Answer 1

Answer:

$x \ge -2$ or $x < -5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$5+x\ge3$ or $6x+1<-29$

Required

The solution

$5+x\ge3$

Solve for x

$x \ge 3 - 5$

$x \ge -2$

$6x+1<-29$

Solve for 6x

$6x < -29 - 1$

$6x < -30$

Solve for x

$x < -30/6$

$x < -5$

Hence, the solution is:

$x \ge -2$ or $x < -5$
