Question

solve the inequality for x.
$2 + \frac{x}{3} \geq -2$
simplify your answer as much as possible.

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 2 from both sides

$2+\frac{x}{3}-2\geq -2-2$
$\frac{x}{3}\geq -4$

Step2: Multiply both sides by 3

$\frac{x}{3}\times3\geq -4\times3$
$x\geq -12$

Answer:

$x\geq -12$
