Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. -5 + 8x ≤ -29 answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: <a number line with -12 to 12 marked, an arrow pointing left from a point> click and drag to plot line. submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Add 5 to both sides

Add 5 to each part of the inequality $-5 + 8x\leq - 29$ to isolate the term with $x$.
$-5+8x + 5\leq-29 + 5$
$8x\leq-24$

Step2: Divide both sides by 8

Divide both sides of the inequality $8x\leq-24$ by 8 to solve for $x$.
$\frac{8x}{8}\leq\frac{-24}{8}$
$x\leq - 3$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x\leq - 3$
Number - Line: Plot a closed circle at - 3 (because the inequality is $\leq$) and draw an arrow to the left.
