Step-by-step explanation:
3×|x + 4| + 2 >= 5
you handle this basically like an equation :
3×|x + 4| >= 3
|x + 4| >= 1
because of the absolute value we have 2 solutions for that :
x + 4 = 1
and
x + 4 = -1
as in both cases the absolute value turns the result into 1.
so,
x + 4 = 1
x = -3
x + 4 = -1
x = -5
so, to satisfy the inequality
x >= -3 or x <= -5
please consider : if the inequality would have been > instead of >=, we would have had to use > and < for the solution.
