Question

1. which of the following are solutions to - 8x - 10≥ - 3 - 4x? select all that apply. a) - 2 b) - 1 c) 0 d) 1 e) 2

Explanation:

Step1: Add 10 to both sides

$-8x - 10+10\geq - 3 - 4x+10$
$-8x\geq7 - 4x$

Step2: Add 4x to both sides

$-8x + 4x\geq7 - 4x+4x$
$-4x\geq7$

Step3: Divide both sides by -4 and reverse the inequality sign

$x\leq-\frac{7}{4}=-1.75$

Answer:

A. - 2
