Question

Select two values for x that would make
8+2x≤20 true.
(Select all that apply.)
10
8
6
☐ 4

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( 8 + 2x \leq 20 \), we can first isolate \( 2x \):

1. Subtract 8 from both sides:
\[
2x \leq 20 - 8
\]
\[
2x \leq 12
\]

2. Divide both sides by 2:
\[
x \leq 6
\]

Now, we need to find values of \( x \) that satisfy \( x \leq 6 \).

The available options are:
- 10
- 8
- 6
- 4

From these options:
- 10 is not less than or equal to 6.
- 8 is not less than or equal to 6.
- 6 is equal to 6.
- 4 is less than 6.

Therefore, the values that make \( 8 + 2x \leq 20 \) true are **6 and 4**.
