Question

3s+6≤-5(s+2)

The answer I got is s ≤ -8 but it is not an answer choice.
Someone please help me.

1. s ≤ 11
2. s ≤ 12
3. s ≤ -5
4. s ≤ -2

Answer 1

s
`\leq` -2

Explanation:

3s + 6 ≤ -5 (s + 2)

Distribute the -5

3s + 6
`\leq` -5s - 10

Group like terms

3s + 5s
`\leq` -10 - 6

Do the math

8s
`\leq` -16

Divide both sides by 2

s
`\leq` -2
