[tex]2x - 6 \geq 6(x - 2) + 8[/tex]

Required

Determine the number line

[tex]2x - 6 \geq 6(x - 2) + 8[/tex]

Open the bracket

[tex]2x - 6 \geq 6*x - 6*2 + 8[/tex]

[tex]2x - 6 \geq 6x - 12 + 8[/tex]

[tex]2x - 6 \geq 6x - 4[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]2x - 6x \geq 6 - 4[/tex]

[tex]- 4x \geq 2[/tex]

Divide both sides by -4

[tex]\frac{- 4x}{-4} \geq \frac{2}{-4}[/tex]

[tex]x \leq -0.5[/tex]
