5x - 15 ≤ 10

answer attempt 1 out of 2

< > ≤ ≥ or

inequality notation:

number line:

submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Add 15 to both sides

$$5x-15 + 15\leq10 + 15$$
$$5x\leq25$$

Step2: Divide both sides by 5

$$\frac{5x}{5}\leq\frac{25}{5}$$
$$x\leq5$$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: \(x\leq5\)

To graph on the number - line: Place a closed circle at \(x = 5\) (because the inequality is \(\leq\), so 5 is included in the solution set) and shade to the left of 5 (since \(x\) is less than or equal to 5).
