2x-3-\left(-x\right)\geq 5x-1
To find the opposite of 3-x, find the opposite of each term.
2x-3+x\geq 5x-1
The opposite of -x is x.
3x-3\geq 5x-1
Combine 2x and x to get 3x.
3x-3-5x\geq -1
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-2x-3\geq -1
Combine 3x and -5x to get -2x.
-2x\geq -1+3
Add 3 to both sides.
-2x\geq 2
Add -1 and 3 to get 2.
x\leq \frac{2}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2. Since -2 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x\leq -1
Divide 2 by -2 to get -1.
