Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

235 ≤ -8(1 + 5x) + 3

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3 on both sides:                        232 ≤ -8(1 + 5x)
  2. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -8 on both sides:                                -29 ≥ 1 + 5x
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 1 on both sides:                         -30 ≥ 5x
  4. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 5 on both sides:                                  -6 ≥ x
  5. Rewrite:                                                                                                             x ≤ -6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, make sure you move everything else to the other side of the ≤ sign.

So,

[tex]235\leq -8(1+5x)+3\\232\leq -8-40x\\240\leq -40x\\-6\geq x[/tex]

* Remember that the sign changes anytime you divide by a negative number!

So your answer is:

[tex]x\leq -6[/tex], x is less than or equal to -6.
