2-4x\geq x+7
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2. Since 2 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
2-4x-x\geq 7
Subtract x from both sides.
2-5x\geq 7
Combine -4x and -x to get -5x.
-5x\geq 7-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
-5x\geq 5
Subtract 2 from 7 to get 5.
x\leq \frac{5}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5. Since -5 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x\leq -1
Divide 5 by -5 to get -1.
