Example 6: Solving Linear Inequalities

Step-by-step worked example for this lesson track.

Problem

Find the boundary for 2x3<1\text{Find the boundary for }-2x-3<1

1. Recognize Pattern

ax+b\gecxcbaax+b\gec\Rightarrow x\ge\frac{c-b}{a}

2. Apply Method

2x+131x62x+13\ge1\Rightarrow x\ge-6

3. Conclude

x>2x>-2

Final answer

x>2x>-2
