HELP ME PLEASE!!!!

Select the correct answer.
Solve this inequality for x: -46 − 8x > 22.
A.
x -8.5
D.
x > 8.5

Answer 1

x < - 8.5

I hope this helps

Answer 2

x < - 8.5

Explanation:

Given

- 46 - 8x > 22 ( add 46 to both sides )

- 8x > 68

Divide both sides by - 8, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity

x < -
`(68)/(8)` , that is

x < - 8.5
