Hi!

We need to isolate x on one side.

Whatever we do to the equation, we do it to both sides.

-6 ≥ 10 - 4x

Subtract 10 from both sides.

-6 - 10 ≥ 10 - 10 - 4x

-16 ≥ -4x

Divide by -4 on both sides. (because we divide by a negative number, we flip the inequality sign)

-16/-4 ≥ -4x/-4

4 ≤ x

Now none of the options are 4 ≤ x. So let's flip the equation to find the answer.

The answer is x ≥ 4

Hope this helps! :)
