Solve 8x−14≤10. Make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( 8x - 14 \leq 10 \), let's isolate \( x \).

1. Start by adding 14 to both sides: \[ 8x - 14 + 14 \leq 10 + 14 \] \[ 8x \leq 24 \]

2. Next, divide both sides by 8: \[ x \leq \frac{24}{8} \] \[ x \leq 3 \]

So, the solution to the inequality is: \[ x \leq 3 \]

If you want to express it with \( x \) first, you can write it as: \[ 3 \geq x \] or \( x \leq 3 \).
