Question

Part 1: Solve the inequality -5x + 8 less than or greater to x - 4 and show all of your work. You can use <= to represent the less than or equal to symbol.

Answer 1

do you have a typo? i think you meant "less than or equal to"

not "less than or greater to"

-5x + 8 <= x-4

just solve for x

add 4 to both sides

-5x + 12 <= x

add 5x to both sides

12 < = 6x

divide by 6 on both sides

2 <= x

or x=> 2
