Question
- \\(\frac{x}{-2} + 1 \leq 2\\)
Step1: Subtract 1 from both sides
$\frac{x}{-2} + 1 - 1 \leq 2 - 1$
Simplify to get $\frac{x}{-2} \leq 1$
Step2: Multiply both sides by -2 (reverse inequality)
When multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign flips.
$x \geq -2$ (because $\frac{x}{-2} \times (-2) \geq 1 \times (-2)$)
