<span>8(3x + 6) + 13---expand using distributive property
=24x + 48+13 ...combine like terms
=24x +61....simplify
answer is C.24x + 61
hope it helps</span>

≥-4
Pretend the greater than or equal to sign is an equal sign, we will substitute it back in later.
x/2 = -4
Multiply both sides by 2 to get x alone
x = -8
Substitute the greater than or equal to sign back in and voila!
x≥-8
I solved it on a piece of paper. I can not answer why I got the same answer, but I hope my method helped
