1 answer

−3−2(x+4)≤5

Simplify the expression inside the parentheses:

−3−2x−8≤5

Combine like terms:

−11−2x≤5

Add 11 to both sides of the inequality:

−2x≤16

Divide both sides by -2, remembering to reverse the inequality sign since we are dividing by a negative number:

x≥-8

Thus, the solution to the inequality is x is greater than or equal to -8.
