Question

How do you solve `3k+8≥ 17`?

Answer 1

`k ge 3`

Explanation:

We can basically solve for `k`, keeping the inequality sign:

`3k+8 ge 17 implies 3k ge 9 implies k ge 3`

We don't need to worry about flipping signs of the inequality because we're not dividing by any negatives or anything crazy like that.
