Question

#2: solve the inequality below. *
$5x + 7 \geq -3$
$\bigcirc$ $x \geq -2$
$\bigcirc$ $x \leq -2$
$\bigcirc$ $x \geq 2$
$\bigcirc$ $x \leq 2$
$\bigcirc$ $x \geq -50$
$\bigcirc$ $x \leq -50$

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 7 from both sides

$5x + 7 - 7 \geq -3 - 7$
$5x \geq -10$

Step2: Divide both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5} \geq \frac{-10}{5}$
$x \geq -2$

Answer:

A. $x \geq -2$
