Answer:
$x\leq3$

Explanation:

The given inequality :
$2(4+2x)\geq5x+5$

To solve the above inequality, first we need to multiply 2 inside the bracket by using distributive property in left side, we get

$8+4x\geq5x+5$

Now, Subtracting 4x and 5 on the both sides of the inequality, we get

$8+4x-4x-5\geq5x+5-4x-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3\geq x$
