Question 147063: Hello, I need help solving equation like the following:
0.7(3x + 4) ≥ 1.3 – (x+2)
I know I remove the parentheses by multiplying
2.1x + 2.8 ≥ -1.3x? + -2.6
I am not sure if I multiply –x and -2 by 1.3 if so, I have
I add 1.3x to each side and get 3.4x and subtract 2.8 from each side and get
3.4x ≥ - 5.4
Divide both sides by 3.4
X = -5.4 OR 1.6 rounded. I know this is incorrect but where did I go wrong?
3.4
Thank you for your help.

Left hand side is OK, but what happened on the right hand side?
To get rid of the decimals, multiply both sides by 10.
I'll let you take it from there.
If you get stuck again, re-post a question.
