Answer

$\left( -\infty, 2 \right]$

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of inequality, the expression $ \dfrac{1}{2}(3x-4)\le\dfrac{3}{4}(x-6)+1 $ simplifies to \begin{array}{l} 4\left[ \dfrac{1}{2}(3x-4) \right]\le\left[ \dfrac{3}{4}(x-6)+1 \right]4\\\\ 2(3x-4)\le3(x-6)+4(1)\\ 6x-8\le3x-18+4\\ 6x-3x\le-18+4+8\\ 3x\le-6\\ x\le-2 .\end{array} In interval notation, the solution set is $ \left( -\infty, 2 \right] $.
