Solution

Sure, let's solve the inequality step by step:

  1. Write down the inequality: -3x - 62 ≥ -47
  2. Add 62 to both sides to isolate the term with x: -3x ≥ -47 + 62
  3. Simplify the right side: -3x ≥ 15
  4. Divide both sides by -3 to solve for x. Remember, when you divide by a negative number, the direction of the inequality changes: x ≤ -15/3
  5. Simplify the right side: x ≤ -5

So, the solution to the inequality is x ≤ -5.

To graph this solution on a number line:

  1. Draw a number line and mark -5 on it.
  2. Since the inequality is "less than or equal to", you'll make a closed circle at -5 to indicate that -5 is included in the solution.
  3. Draw a line extending to the left from -5, towards smaller numbers, to show that all numbers less than -5 are also solutions.
