Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. -5x - 3 ≤ 32 answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 click and drag to plot line. submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Add 3 to both sides

$-5x - 3+3\leq32 + 3$
$-5x\leq35$

Step2: Divide both sides by - 5 and reverse the inequality sign

Since dividing by a negative number, we have $x\geq\frac{35}{-5}$
$x\geq - 7$

Answer:

$\geq$, $x\geq - 7$
On the number - line, we would place a closed circle at - 7 (because the inequality is $\geq$) and shade to the right.
