Start with the given inequality: \(2\left(x+4\right) \le 3\left(x-1\right) + x\).
Distribute the constants inside the parentheses on both sides: \(2x + 8 \le 3x - 3 + x\).
Combine like terms on the right side: \(2x + 8 \le 4x - 3\).
Get all variable terms on one side and constants on the other by subtracting \$2x\( from both sides and adding \)3$ to both sides: \(8 + 3 \le 4x - 2x\) which simplifies to \(11 \le 2x\).
Solve for \(x\) by dividing both sides by 2: \(\frac{11}{2} \le x\). This is the solution in inequality form, which can be written in interval notation as \(\left[\frac{11}{2}, \infty\right)\).
