Answer:

D. There are no solutions

Explanation:

First inequality:

... -16 ≥ 8x . . . . . . . add 8x-60 to the inequality

... -2 ≥ x . . . . . . . . divide by 8

Second inequality:

... -8 < 4x . . . . . . . . add 4x-58 to the inequality

... -2 < x . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

The problem statement requires a solution satisfy both conditions on x. The two solution sets are disjoint (have no points in common), so ...

... there are no solutions.
