Answer

$\left [\frac{-13}{3} ,5\right ]$.

Work Step by Step

$\Rightarrow |3x-1|\leq14$ Rewrite the inequality without absolute value bars. $\Rightarrow -14\leq3x-1\leq14$ Add $1$ to all three parts. $\Rightarrow -14+1\leq3x-1+1\leq14+1$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow -13\leq3x\leq15$ Divide all three parts by $3$. $\Rightarrow \frac{-13}{3}\leq\frac{3x}{3}\leq\frac{15}{3}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow \frac{-13}{3}\leq x\leq5$ The interval notation is $\left [\frac{-13}{3} ,5\right ]$.
