solve the given inequality and represent its solution on the number line. 8x ≤ 24

1 answer

To solve the inequality 8x ≤ 24, we need to divide both sides by 8 to isolate x:

8x/8 ≤ 24/8
x ≤ 3

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x ≤ 3.

On the number line, this would be represented by a closed circle at 3 with an arrow to the left to show all values less than or equal to 3.
