Answer:

  • Option A, B, and E is correct.

Explanation:

Let's simplify the in-equality. Then, choose the options given.

  • => 1.6 ≥ 0.8x + 4
  • => -4 + 1.6 ≥ 0.8x
  • => -2.4 ≥ 0.8x
  • => x = -2.4/0.8
  • => x = -3

Now, let's choose our options.

_____________________________________________

Option A

This option is similar to the simplification step where we simplified the inequality given. Since the option has included a bar under the "less than" sign, the bar defines that it is less than or equal to.

Hence, Option A must be correct.

Option B

  • => 1.6 ≥ 0.8(-7) + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ -5.6 + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ -1.6

This is true because -1.6 is definitely less than 1.6.

Hence, Option B must be correct.

Option C

  • => 1.6 ≥ 0.8(7) + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ 0.8(7) + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ 5.6 + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ 9.6

This is false because 9.6 is not less than 1.6.

Hence, Option C must me incorrect.

Option D

  • => 1.6 ≥ 0.8(3) + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ 2.4 + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ 6.4

This is false because 6.4 is not less than 1.6.

Hence, Option D must be incorrect.

Option E

  • => 1.6 ≥ 0.8(-4) + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ -3.2 + 4
  • => 1.6 ≥ 0.8

This is true because 0.8 is definitely less than 1.6.

Hence, Option E must be correct.

____________________________________________

We can finally conclude that Option A, B, and E is correct.

Hoped this helped.
