Solve for x.
−6≥10−8x
Enter your answer as an inequality in the box.
x ≤ -3/4
-16 >/= -8 x
16 </= 8 x (change direction when multiplying both sides by negative)
so
x >/= 2
==============
check
if x = 3 it should be true
-6 >/= ??? 10 - 8 * (3)
-6 >/= ??? 10 - 24
-6 >/= -14 yes, -6 is to the right of -14 on number line
I have no idea what answered did.
To solve for x in the inequality −6 ≥ 10 − 8x, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Subtract 10 from both sides to isolate the -8x term:
-6 - 10 ≥ 10 - 10 - 8x
-16 ≥ -8x
Step 2: Divide both sides by -8. Remember that when dividing by a negative number, the inequality sign flips:
-16 / -8 ≤ -8x / -8
2 ≤ x
Therefore, the solution is x ≤ 2.
To solve for x in the inequality -6 ≥ 10 - 8x, we need to isolate x on one side of the inequality sign.
First, we can simplify the equation by subtracting 10 from both sides:
-6 - 10 ≥ 10 - 10 - 8x
-16 ≥ -8x
Next, we divide both sides of the inequality by -8. However, when dividing or multiplying an inequality by a negative number, we need to reverse the direction of the inequality sign.
Dividing both sides by -8:
(-16) / (-8) ≤ (-8x) / (-8)
2 ≤ x
So the solution to the inequality is x ≥ 2.
Therefore, the answer is x ≥ 2.
