To determine which whole numbers less than 10 are solutions of the inequality 4x - 8 ≤ 4, we can solve for x:
4x - 8 ≤ 4
Add 8 to both sides:
4x ≤ 12
Divide by 4:
x ≤ 3
Therefore, the whole numbers less than 10 that are solutions of the inequality are 1, 2, and 3.
Which whole numbers less than 10 are solutions of 4x - 8 _< 4?

0 is also a whole number
Apologies for the oversight. You are correct that 0 is also a whole number. In this case, the whole numbers less than 10 that are solutions of the inequality 4x - 8 ≤ 4 are 0, 1, 2, and 3.
