I'm not sure what you are asking but I will attempt with these equations according to the info you have given: 3x + 1 <= -2. Solving for x <= -1. This was done by subtracting 1 from both sides of the equation so 3x <= -3. Divide by 3 and there's your answer. 2x + 3 > 5 is done the same way. 2x > 5 - 3 so x > 1. Hope I helped.
