Answer:

x ≤ -7

(-∞, -7]

Explanation:

3x + 5

2x - --------------- ≤ -10

4

1. Multiply 4 on both sides. This eliminates the denominator 4

3x + 5

(4)2x - --------------- ≤ -10(4)

4 (4)

2. Combine like terms

8x - (3x + 5) ≤ -40

8x - 3x - 5x ≤ -40

= 5x - 5 ≤ - 40

3. Add 5 on both sides

5x - 5 ≤ -40

+5 +5

5x ≤ -35

4. Divide

5x ≤ -35

÷5 ÷5

x ≤ -7 or (-∞, -7]

I hope this helps!
