x+1-3x\leq 5
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-2x+1\leq 5
Combine x and -3x to get -2x.
-2x\leq 5-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-2x\leq 4
Subtract 1 from 5 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.
