Given inequalities 5(2x – 7) – 3(2x + 3) ≤ 0 and 2x + 19 ≤ 6x + 47

5(2x – 7) – 3(2x + 3) ≤ 0

⇒ 10x – 35 – 6x – 9 ≤ 0

⇒ 4x – 44 ≤ 0

⇒ 4x ≤ 44

⇒ x ≤ 11 ……(I)

2x + 19 ≤ 6x +47

⇒ 6x – 2x ≥ 19 – 47

⇒ 4x ≥ -28

⇒ x ≥ -7 ……….(II)

From (I) and (II) we conclude that solution of given inequalities is (-7, 11).
