Question

  1. what is the solution to $-4x \geq 16$?

a. $x \geq 4$

b. $x \geq -4$

c. $x \leq 4$

d. $x \leq -4$

Explanation:

Step1: Divide both sides by -4

When dividing by a negative number, reverse the inequality sign:
$\frac{-4x}{-4} \leq \frac{16}{-4}$

Step2: Simplify both sides

$x \leq -4$

Answer:

d. $x \leq -4$
