To solve the inequality $ 56x \leq -10 $, we can use the Division Property of Inequality, which states that if you divide (or multiply) both sides of an inequality by a positive number, the inequality symbol stays the same. However, if you divide (or multiply) both sides by a negative number, the inequality symbol must be reversed. In the inequality $ 56x \leq -10 $: 1. We want to isolate $ x $ by dividing both sides by 56, which is a positive number. Therefore, the direction of the inequality does not change. So, we divide both sides by 56: $$ x \leq \frac{-10}{56} $$ This simplifies to: $$ x \leq -\frac{5}{28} $$ Now, let's evaluate the statements made by Juana, Anish, and Giselle: - **Juana** is incorrect because the inequality symbol does not need to be reversed since we divided by a positive number. - **Anish** is correct because he refers to using the Division Property of Inequality correctly, but the implication of needing to reverse the symbol is not applicable here. - **Giselle** is correct because the inequality symbol must remain as $ \leq $. Thus, the correct combination of people who are correct about the inequality is **Anish and Giselle**.
