I'm wondering if there is no solution...
First distribute the -4 on the left side.
8 -4(2-x)≤-2x
8 - 8 + 4x ≤ -2x
The 8's cancel
4x ≤ -2x
Add 2x to each side
6x ≤ 0
Divide both sides by 6
x ≤ 0/6
x ≤ 0
8-4(2-x)<=-2x Original
8-8-4(2-X)<=-8-2X DIstribute 8
-4(2-x)<=-8-2x Simplify
-8 + 4<=-10X Simplify
-4<= -10X Simplify
2/5 <= x Answer
First distribute
8-8+4xâ¤-2x
simplify, combine like terms
6xâ¤0
so any xâ¤0 will make it true.
Mathgirl got it first, but I wanted to confirm what she said.
when u work it out ur final answer should be 4x less than or equal to -2x which is false so no there is no answer. ur welcome
