Solve the inequality for x:
5x - 3 ≤ 7x +7
Subtract 7x from each side:
-2x -3 ≤ 7
Add 3 to each side:
-2x ≤ 10
Divide both sides by -2, also when dividing both sides of an inequality you flip the direction of the inequality sign:
x ≥ -5
The dot will be on -5, because the inequality includes equal to, the dot is solid and is greater than, the arrow will point to the right.
The correct answer is D.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
expanding the bracket, we would have
-2x -18 = -x+1+2
-2x+x= 3 +18
-x=21
x=-21
