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

1 answer

To solve the inequality \( 8x - 14 \leq 10 \), 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. Now, divide both sides by 8: \[ x \leq \frac{24}{8} \] Simplifying gives: \[ x \leq 3 \]

So, the solution to the inequality expressed with \( x \) first is: \[ x \leq 3 \]
