Answer:

Disagree Hope that helps bye !

Explanation:

-8x less than 46-6 sub 6 from both sides

46-6= 40 -8x less than 40

x greater than - 40/8 Divide both sides by -8= -5

so it would be x greater than -5 it's disagree because the symbols are different it supposed to be x greater than -5 not less than.
