Answer:

The answer is x = 2/7

Explanation:

To find the intersection between 6x - 2 and 2 - 8x, we need to solve the equation:

6x - 2 = 2 - 8x

Adding 8x to both sides, we get:

14x - 2 = 2

Adding 2 to both sides, we get:

14x = 4

Dividing both sides by 14, we get:

x = 4/14 = 2/7

To find the values of x that satisfy the inequality 7x + 6 ≤ 13, we need to solve the inequality:

7x + 6 ≤ 13

Subtracting 6 from both sides, we get:

7x ≤ 7

Dividing both sides by 7, we get:

x ≤ 1

Therefore, the intersection between 6x - 2 and 2 - 8x for values of x that satisfy 7x + 6 ≤ 13 is x = 2/7. Since 2/7 is less than or equal to 1, it satisfies the inequality.

So the answer is x = 2/7.

Hope this helps! Sorry if it's wrong. If you need more help, ask me! :]
