Answer:

Solutions: -1, 4, and 0

Explanation:

f= -4.5

2f - 8 ≤ 6f + 4

2 (-4.5) -8 ≤ 6 (-4.5) + 4

-9 - 8 ≤ -27 + 4

-17 ≤ -23

Not True

f= -8

2f - 8 ≤ 6f + 4

2 (-8) - 8 ≤ 6 (-8) + 4

-16 - 8 ≤ -48 + 4

-24 ≤ -44

Not true

f= -1

2f - 8 ≤ 6f + 4

2 (-1) - 8 ≤ 6 (-1) + 4

-2 - 8 ≤ -6 + 4

-10 ≤ -2

True

f= 4

2f - 8 ≤ 6f + 4

2 (4) - 8 ≤ 6 (4) + 4

8-8 ≤ 24 + 4

0 ≤ 28

True

f= 0

2f - 8 ≤ 6f + 4

2 (0) - 8 ≤ 6 (0) + 4

0 - 8 ≤ 0 + 4

-8 ≤ 4

True
