To solve the inequality \( x - 8 \geq 5 \), we can isolate \( x \) by adding 8 to both sides:
\[ x - 8 + 8 \geq 5 + 8 \]
This simplifies to:
\[ x \geq 13 \]
So, the inequality with \( x \) coming first is:
\[ x \geq 13 \]
. Make sure to write your inequality so that x
comes first.
Note: You will find the option to add a >
, <
, ≥
, or ≤
symbol in the Comparison (<)
keyboard.
