4x(x11)x3 4 x-(x-11) \leq x-3

Full solution

Q. 4x(x11)x3 4 x-(x-11) \leq x-3
  1. Distribute Negative Sign: Distribute the negative sign through the parentheses. 4x(x11)=4xx+114x - (x - 11) = 4x - x + 11
  2. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms on the left side of the inequality. 4xx+11=3x+114x - x + 11 = 3x + 11
  3. Subtract xx: Subtract xx from both sides to get all the xx terms on one side.\newline3x+11xx3x3x + 11 - x \leq x - 3 - x
  4. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms on both sides.\newline2x+1132x + 11 \leq -3
  5. Subtract 1111: Subtract 1111 from both sides to isolate the term with xx.\newline2x+11113112x + 11 - 11 \leq -3 - 11
  6. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms on both sides.\newline2x142x \leq -14
  7. Divide by 22: Divide both sides by 22 to solve for xx.2x2142\frac{2x}{2} \leq \frac{-14}{2}
  8. Simplify and Solve: Simplify both sides. x7x \leq -7
