Question

Which value is a solution to the inequality 13 – x ≤ –29?

Answer 1

First, add 29 on both sides.

42 - x is less than or equal to 0.

Next, add x on both sides.

42 is less than or equal to x.

Hence, the correct answer is (C).

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

given

13 - x ≤ - 29 ( subtract 13 from both sides )

- x  ≤ - 42 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

Remembering to reverse the inequality symbol as a consequence of multiplying/dividing by a negative quantity

x ≥ 42 ← reverse symbol

The only value from the list that makes the inequality true is 48
