Bot GPT 3.5 To solve the inequality –1.2x – 6.5x ≤ 2.3x + 5, let's simplify both sides:
–1.2x – 6.5x ≤ 2.3x + 5
Combine like terms:
–7.7x ≤ 2.3x + 5
Subtract 2.3x from both sides:
–7.7x - 2.3x ≤ 5
Simplify:
–10x ≤ 5
Now divide both sides by –10. Since we are dividing by a negative number, the inequality sign must be flipped:
x ≥ 5/–10
Simplify:
x ≥ –0.5
Therefore, the solution to the inequality –1.2x – 6.5x ≤ 2.3x + 5 is x ≥ –0.5.
