Answer

$\text{Set Builder Notation: } \left\{ x|x\ge-\dfrac{3}{2} \right\} \\\text{Interval Notation: } \left[ -\dfrac{3}{2},\infty \right)$

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of inequality, then \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} 2x\ge-3 \\\\ x\ge-\dfrac{3}{2} .\end{array} Hence, the solution set is \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} \text{Set Builder Notation: } \left\{ x|x\ge-\dfrac{3}{2} \right\} \\\text{Interval Notation: } \left[ -\dfrac{3}{2},\infty \right) .\end{array} In the graph, a hollowed dot is used for $\lt$ or $\gt.$ A solid dot is used for $\le$ or $\ge.$
