To solve the inequality \( x - 13 \leq 12 \), follow these steps:
- Add 13 to both sides of the inequality: \[ x - 13 + 13 \leq 12 + 13 \] This simplifies to: \[ x \leq 25 \]
So the solution is \( x \leq 25 \).
Among the provided responses, none directly match this inequality, but the closest valid simplification is when it states:
x ≤ 25.
If this was a choice given, that would be the correct answer. However, as given, the responses do not include \( x \leq 25 \). Please double-check the options provided for possible typographical errors or omissions.
