The possible values of x are given by x+8=<6.<br><br>The greatest possible value of 7x is_____

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The possible values of x is given by $x\leq -2$ and they include: -2, -3, -4, -5, -6 and so on

The greatest possible value of 7x is $-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation: x + 8 <= 6

Let collect the like terms:

$x + 8 \leq 6\\x\leq 6 -8\\x \leq -2$

Therefore, x <= -2 and the possible values include: -2, -3, -4, -5, -6 and so on

To find the greatest possible value of 7x is when x = -2.

$7x = 7 * -2\\7x = -14\\$ .
