Answer

$[1,\infty)$

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of inequality, the given inequality, $ -2x+4\le-x+3 $ is equivalent to \begin{align*} -2x+x&\le3-4 \\ -x&\le-1 .\end{align*} Multiplying both sides by $-1$ (and consequentially reversing the inequality), then \begin{align*} -1(-x)&\ge(-1)(-1) \\ x&\ge1 .\end{align*} Hence, in interval notation, the solution of $ -2x+4\le-x+3 $ is $[1,\infty)$.
