Question

16x − 7 ≤ − 71 Find the solution set of the inequality

Answer 1

Answer:

x$\leq -4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 7 to other side making equation 16x$\leq$-71+7

16x$\leq$-64

16 goes into -64 -4 times.

Answer would give you x$\leq$-4

To check, you could substitute -4 into the inequality

16(-4)-7$\leq$-71

-71$\leq$-71 check

16(-10)-7$\leq$-71

-167$\leq$-71 check
