Answer:
x ≤ 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Note the ≤ sign, treat it like an equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, subtract 3 and x from both sides:
2x (-x) + 3 (-3) ≤ x (-x) + 5 (-3)
2x - x ≤ 5 - 3
Simplify:
2x - x ≤ 5 - 3
x ≤ 2
x ≤ 2 is your answer.

Answer:
415
Step-by-step explanation:
970 divided by 2 = 485, 485 + 70 = 555
970 - 555 = 415, so your answer is 415
10 - 5x < 6x - 8
We can treat this inequality like a normal algebraic equation.
<em><u>Add 5x to both sides</u></em>
10 < 11x - 8
<em><u>Add 8 to both sides</u></em>
18 < 11x
<em><u>Divide both sides by 11</u></em>
1.64 < x
X is greater than the value 1.64.
Let's plug the number 2 into each value of x to verify.
10 - 5x < 6x - 8
10 - 5*2) < (6 * 2) - 8
10 - 10 < 12 - 8
0 < 4
It's correct.
Now let's plug 1, which is less than 1.64.
10 - 5x < 6x - 8
10 - 5 < 6 - 8
5 < -2
This is not correct, which means that our answer was correct.
0 anything multiplied by Zero is zero
