First, distribute the 43 in the left side of the inequality: 4+43x+43(2)≤83x+1 4+43x+46≤83x+1 4+43x+23≤83x+1 Convert all terms to have a common denominator, which is 8:
832+86x+812≤83x+88 Combine the constants on the left side:
844+86x≤83x+88 Multiply both sides by 8 to eliminate the fractions:
44+6x≤3x+8 Subtract 3x from both sides: 44+6x−3x≤3x−3x+8 44+3x≤8 Subtract 44 from both sides:
44−44+3x≤8−44 Divide both sides by 3:
33x≤3−36
