Verified Answer :

2(4+2x)≥5x+5
distribute
8+4x≥5x+5
minus 4x both sides
8≥x+5
minus 5 from both sides
3≥x
x≤3

The solution to the inequality \(2(4 + 2x) \geq 5x + 5\) will be \(x \leq 3\) .

What are inequalities ?

Inequality is a statement of an order relationship—greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to—between two numbers or algebraic expressions.

We have,

\(2(4 + 2x) \geq 5x + 5\)

Now,

Simplify for \(2(4 + 2x)\) ;

\(2(4 + 2x)\)

\(8 + 4x\)

Now,

So rewrite \(2(4 + 2x) \geq 5x + 5\) ;

\((8 + 4x) \geq 5x + 5\)

Now using distributive property ;

\((8 + 4x) \geq 5x + 5\)

Move all terms containing \(x\) to the left side,

\((8 + 4x- 5x ) \geq + 5\)

\((8 -x ) \geq + 5\)

\(( -x ) \geq + 5-8\)

\(-x \geq -3\)

⇒ \(x \leq 3\)

Hence, we can say that the solution to the inequality \(2(4 + 2x) \geq 5x + 5\) will be \(x \leq 3\) .
