Question

Is -18 great than or equal to 5 x - 8

Answer 1

Is your question supposed to be : -18 <= 5x - 8, and your supposed to find
x ?

Answer 2

Because if you supposed to find out if -18 is <= to 5x - 8, then we need to know the value of x to determine if -18 is greater then or= to.

Answer 3

are you supposed to solve for x in the inequality ?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

-18 <= 5x - 8
(add 8 to both sides)
-18 + 8 <= 5x
(combine like terms)
-10 <= 5x
(now divide both sides by 5)
-2 <= x
