Answer:

Inequality Form: x ≤ 1

Interval Notation: (−∞, 1]

Explanation:

24 ≤ 8 (7 − 4x)

Rewrite so x is on the left side of the inequality.

8 (7 − 4x) ≥ 24

Divide each term by 8 and simplify.

Divide each term in 8 (7 − 4x) ≥ 24 by 8.

8 (7 − 4x)/8 ≥ 24/8

Cancel the common factor of 8.

7 − 4x ≥ 24/ 8

Divide 24 by 8.

7 − 4x ≥ 3

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the inequality.

−4x ≥ −4

Divide each term by −4 and simplify.

x ≤ 1

The result can be shown in multiple forms.
