Answer

$6\geq z\geq -2$ The graph is shown below.

Work Step by Step

The given inequality is $\Rightarrow 19\geq 3z+1 \geq -5$ Subtract $1$ from each expression. $\Rightarrow 19-1\geq 3z+1-1 \geq -5-1$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow 18\geq 3z \geq -6$ Divide each side by $3$. $\Rightarrow \frac{18}{3}\geq \frac{3z}{3} \geq \frac{-6}{3}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow 6\geq z\geq -2$ Hence, the solution is $6\geq z\geq -2$.
