3\left(3x-2\right)\geq 5\left(2x+1\right)-15
Multiply both sides of the equation by 15, the least common multiple of 5,3. Since 15 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
9x-6\geq 5\left(2x+1\right)-15
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 3x-2.
9x-6\geq 10x+5-15
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by 2x+1.
9x-6\geq 10x-10
Subtract 15 from 5 to get -10.
9x-6-10x\geq -10
Subtract 10x from both sides.
-x-6\geq -10
Combine 9x and -10x to get -x.
-x\geq -10+6
Add 6 to both sides.
-x\geq -4
Add -10 and 6 to get -4.
x\leq \frac{-4}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1. Since -1 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x\leq 4
Fraction \frac{-4}{-1} can be simplified to 4 by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
