Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x:

-3x + 8 ≥ 14

-3x ≥ 6

x ≤ -2

Notice the sign gets reversed when you divide or multiply by a negative number.

The only option less than -2 is -3, A.

Here's a tip: on multiple choice questions, sometimes it's faster to try each answer instead of solving the equation.  This can save time on tests like the SAT or ACT.

Let's try it:

-3(-3) + 8 = 9 + 8 = 17

-3(-1) + 8 = 3 + 8 = 11

-3(0) + 8 = 0 + 8 = 8

-3(3) + 8 = -9 + 8 = -1

So you can see the answer is A.
