Question

solve, $5x - 12 \leq 3(x - 8)$

Explanation:

Step1: Expand the right side

$5x - 12 \leq 3x - 24$

Step2: Subtract \(3x\) from both sides

$5x - 3x - 12 \leq -24$
$2x - 12 \leq -24$

Step3: Add \(12\) to both sides

$2x \leq -24 + 12$
$2x \leq -12$

Step4: Divide both sides by \(2\)

$x \leq \frac{-12}{2}$
$x \leq -6$

Answer:

\(x \leq -6\)
