What is the solution for the following compound inequality? -3x+2>11 or 5x+1>6

For -3x+2>11 "x" is equal to -3. For 5x+1>6 "x" is equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+2>11

To get x you have to isolate it so you have to get 2 to the right side. So you subtract 2 from the left and right side to cancel out 2. You subtract 2 from 2 to get 0 and subtract 2 from 11 to get 9.

-3x>9

Now you divide to get x. Divide by -3. -3x/-3 is canceled out to get x by itself. 9/-3 is how you get x which would be -3.

5x+1>6

For this problem its similar steps.

Isolate x by subtracting 1 from 1 and from 6.

5x>5

Divide by 5 to get the x by itself. So you divide 5x/5 which cancel out and leaves the x by itself and then the right side 5/5 to get 1 as the answer for x.
