3 steps

Here is the solution to the inequality:

Given the inequality:

2x−5≤3x+72x - 5 \le 3x + 7
  1. Subtract 2x2x from both sides of the inequality to gather the xx terms on one side.

    2x−5−2x≤3x+7−2x2x - 5 - 2x \le 3x + 7 - 2x −5≤x+7-5 \le x + 7
  2. Subtract 7 from both sides of the inequality to isolate xx.

    −5−7≤x+7−7-5 - 7 \le x + 7 - 7 −12≤x-12 \le x
  3. Rewrite the inequality with xx on the left side.

    x≥−12x \ge -12
