Solve 8x−14≤10

Question

. Make sure to write your inequality so that x
comes first.(1 point)

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( 8x - 14 \leq 10 \) and write it with \( x \) coming first, follow these steps:

1. Add 14 to both sides of the inequality: \[ 8x - 14 + 14 \leq 10 + 14 \] This simplifies to: \[ 8x \leq 24 \]

2. Divide both sides by 8: \[ x \leq \frac{24}{8} \] This simplifies to: \[ x \leq 3 \]

Now, to write the inequality so that \( x \) comes first, we can rewrite it as: \[ x \leq 3 \]

This is the final form with \( x \) coming first.
