Answer 5

Ok, let's see how this goes.

What do think the first step should be?

Answer 6

multiply both sides by 8?

Answer 7

Yes, that leaves you with:\[13-5x>=-32\]Now we'd like to get x by itself so subtract 13 from both sides as well to get:\[-5x>=-45\]

Answer 8

What do you think is next?

Answer 9

divide

Answer 10

Yes, divide both sides by 5 to get:\[-x >=-9\] The final step is to get rid of the negative signs. To do that, you multiply both sides by -1 and flip the sign. That gives you the final answer of:\[x <=9\]
