Question 414457


{{{1-2x<=-6}}} Start with the given inequality.



{{{-2x<=-6-1}}} Subtract {{{1}}} from both sides.



{{{-2x<=-7}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x>=(-7)/(-2)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-2}}} to isolate {{{x}}}. note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number. 



{{{x>=7/2}}} Reduce.



----------------------------------------------------------------------


Answer:


So the solution is {{{x>=7/2}}}
