Answer:
-1/4 ≤ x
Explanation:
Let's try to represent this with numbers in order.
10 is no more than means it's an inequality. No more than means less than or equal to.
It says 4 times the sum of something, so it sounds like we have to put something in parentheses.
The sum of twice a number and 3 can be written as:
2x + 3
4 times that can be written as:
4(2x +3)
So at the end its:
10 ≤ 4(2x + 3)
Using the distributive property, it becomes:
10 ≤ 8x + 12
Isolating x by subtracting 12 on both sides makes it:
-2 ≤ 8x
Dividing by 8 gives:
-1/4 ≤ x
