Question

What is the solution for this inequality?
5x ≤ 45

Solve for x

Answer 1

Pull out like factors :

5x - 45 = 5 • (x - 9)
Divide both sides by 5


Add 9 to both sides

x ≤ 9



Your answer is
x ≤ 9

Answer 2

To solve for this we need x by itself. To do that we divide both sides by 5.
This will leave you with x <_9.
