To solve the inequality 23x ≤ 5, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 23 to isolate the variable x:
x ≤ 5/23
The graph that shows the solution to this inequality is a number line that ranges from negative 10 to 10, with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed point is plotted on the number line at 5/23, and a leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10.
Therefore, the correct graph is:
Image: A number line ranges from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed point is plotted on the number line at 5/23. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed circle and goes beyond negative 10.
