Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. 8x - 2 ≥ 14

Explanation:

Step1: Add 2 to both sides

$8x - 2+2\geq14 + 2$
$8x\geq16$

Step2: Divide both sides by 8

$\frac{8x}{8}\geq\frac{16}{8}$
$x\geq2$

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is $x\geq2$. To graph it, draw a number - line. Put a closed circle at 2 (because the inequality is $\geq$) and shade to the right of 2.
