solve for the inequality

Question

x + 5≤ 13

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( x + 5 \leq 13 \), you need to isolate \( x \). Here are the steps:

1. Subtract 5 from both sides of the inequality: \[ x + 5 - 5 \leq 13 - 5 \]

2. This simplifies to: \[ x \leq 8 \]

So the solution to the inequality is \( x \leq 8 \).

In interval notation, this solution is expressed as \( (-\infty, 8] \).
