Answer 1

To solve the inequality 8x + 4 ≥ 52, we need to isolate the variable x.

First, subtract 4 from both sides:

8x + 4 - 4 ≥ 52 - 4

This simplifies to:

8x ≥ 48

Next, divide both sides by 8 to solve for x:

8x/8 ≥ 48/8

Simplifying further:

x ≥ 6

The solution is x greater than or equal to 6. Therefore, the correct response is x≥6.
