Question

Solve 8x - 14 ≤ 10. Make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first.

Answer 1

Let's solve the inequality:

8x - 14 ≤ 10

First, we'll isolate the term containing x on one side of the inequality by adding 14 to both sides:

8x - 14 + 14 ≤ 10 + 14

8x ≤ 24

Now, to solve for x, divide both sides by 8:

8x / 8 ≤ 24 / 8

x ≤ 3

Now the inequality, with x coming first, is:

x ≤ 3
