Solve the following equation. Then place the correct number in the box provided. 2x - 1 ≤ x + 5

Respuesta :

Answer:

The solution for the inequality is [tex]x \leq 6[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided inequality.  

[tex]2x - 1 \leq x + 5[/tex]

Subtract x from both the sides.

[tex]2x -x- 1 \leq x-x + 5[/tex]

[tex]x- 1 \leq 5[/tex]

Add 1 to both the sides.

[tex]x- 1+1 \leq 5+1[/tex]

[tex]x \leq 6[/tex]

Hence the solution for the inequality is [tex]x \leq 6[/tex].
