-2x-x^{2}+15+2x-6\geq 0
Use the distributive property to multiply x+5 by 3-x and combine like terms.
-x^{2}+15-6\geq 0
Combine -2x and 2x to get 0.
-x^{2}+9\geq 0
Subtract 6 from 15 to get 9.
x^{2}-9\leq 0
Multiply the inequality by -1 to make the coefficient of the highest power in -x^{2}+9 positive. Since -1 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x^{2}\leq 9
Add 9 to both sides.
x^{2}\leq 3^{2}
Calculate the square root of 9 and get 3. Rewrite 9 as 3^{2}.
|x|\leq 3
Inequality holds for |x|\leq 3.
x\in \begin{bmatrix}-3,3\end{bmatrix}
Rewrite |x|\leq 3 as x\in \left[-3,3\right].
