Question

solve for x and graph the solution on the number line below. -40 ≥ 4x answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate x

Divide both sides of $- 40\geq4x$ by 4. Since 4 is positive, the inequality sign remains the same.
$\frac{-40}{4}\geq\frac{4x}{4}$

Step2: Simplify

$-10\geq x$ or $x\leq - 10$

Answer:

$\leq$
Inequality Notation: $x\leq - 10$
Number Line: Mark a closed - circle at - 10 (because the inequality includes equality) and shade to the left of - 10.
