(3x+1)/(x+4)>=1








Critical x values are at and . The first of those because of the numerator, the second of those because of the denominator.
The critical x values tell you the intervals on the x number line to check the truth of falsity of the inequality.

                           CHOOSE A VALUE x       CHECK SIGNS      RESULT

                 -5                  (-)/(-)=(+)      TRUE

                    0                (-)/(+)=(-)        FALSE

                     3                 (+)/(+)=(+)       TRUE
