Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided.
$8x + 5 \geq 21$
answer attempt 1 out of 2
inequality notation:
number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 5 from both sides

$8x + 5 - 5 \geq 21 - 5$
$8x \geq 16$

Step2: Divide both sides by 8

$\frac{8x}{8} \geq \frac{16}{8}$
$x \geq 2$

Step3: Graph on number line

Mark a closed dot at 2, shade all values to the right of 2 on the provided number line.

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x \geq 2$
Number Line: Closed dot at 2, shaded region extending to the right of 2.
