Answer:

The solution to the given inequality is (-∞,5].

Explanation:

An inequality is a relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers.

Given : 7-3(x+5)+8x≤17

=7-3(x+5)+8x ≤ 17

= 7- 3x - 15 + 8x ≤ 17

= -8 + 5x ≤ 17

Adding 8 on both sides:

= -8 +8+ 5x ≤ 17+8

= 5x ≤ 25

x ≤ 5

The solution to the inequality : (-∞,5].
