5-2x\leq 1
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side. This changes the sign direction.
-2x\leq 1-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
-2x\leq -4
Subtract 5 from 1 to get -4.
x\geq \frac{-4}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2. Since -2 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x\geq 2
Divide -4 by -2 to get 2.
