We need to solve for x. For now, just think of that inequality symbol as an = sign x/6 - 8 = 0 Can you solve for x? First add 8 on both sides and then multiply by 6. Let me know what you get

x=48

Good!

Tranquility:

Now replace the = sign back with the ≤ For the most part, you can think of it as an equal sign when you're trying to solve for x. The only exception is if you multiply/divide both sides by a negative number, then the sign will flip. ≤ becomes ≥ ≥ becomes ≤

Tranquility:

You have x ≤ 48 That means x includes 48 and is any number that's smaller than 48 Which number line shows that?

c i meant

Tranquility:

x ≤ 48 x is less than or equal to 48 That means x can be 48 x can be any number less than 48 x can be 47, 46, .... it can be 0 it can be -1, -2 What does C show us? The red line shows all numbers that are GREATER than 48 not less than 48

martai:

so b

Tranquility:

Yes
