Answer:

x<−1 and

4

x≥4.

Explanation:

9x−13<−22

8

+

7

25

−8x+7≤−25

Let's solve each of these inequalities separately:

9

13

<

22

9x−13<−22

Add 13 to both sides:

9

13

+

13

<

22

+

13

9x−13+13<−22+13

This simplifies to:

9

<

9

9x<−9

Now, divide both sides by 9:

9

9

<

9

9

9

9x

<

9

−9

<

1

x<−1

So the solution to the first inequality is

<

1

x<−1.

8

+

7

25

−8x+7≤−25

Subtract 7 from both sides:

8

+

7

7

25

7

−8x+7−7≤−25−7

Simplify:

8

32

−8x≤−32

Now, divide both sides by -8, and remember to reverse the inequality sign when dividing by a negative number:

8

8

32

8

−8

−8x

−8

−32

4

x≥4

So the solution to the second inequality is

4

x≥4.

Therefore, the solutions to the system of inequalities are

<

1

x<−1 and

4

x≥4.
