Answer: Choice C

The solution is
z \ge 8

The graph has an closed filled in circle at 8 on the number line, with shading to the right of that closed circle.

=======================================================

Step-by-step explanation:


-4z \le -32


(-4z)/(-4) \ge (-32)/(-4) see note below


z \ge 8

note: I divided both sides by -4 to undo the multiplication done to z; the inequality sign flips because we divided both sides by a negative number

So the solution set is the set of z values such that z is 8 or larger. We are including the endpoint 8 so we use a filled in closed circle (not an open circle or hole). We include the endpoint because of the "or equal to" as part of ht inequality sign.
