Verified Answer :

−10x−4≥−4(x−2)
-10x - 4>-4x +8
-10x +4x > 8 +4
-6x >12
   x >-12/6
   x>-2

Answer:

\(x\leq -2\)

Step-by-step explanation:

−10x−4 ≥ −4(x−2)     Given

-10x - 4 ≥ -4x + 8    Distributive property (-4 times x and -4 times -2)

-6x -4 ≥ 8    Addition or subtraction property (Add 4x to both sides)

-6x ≥ 12  Addition or subtraction property (Add 4 to both sides)

\(6x \leq -12\)   Multiplication or division property (Multiply both sides by -1, reverse the inequality)

  \(x \leq -2\)  Multiplication or division property (Divide both sides by 6)
