Answer:

x ≤ 4

Explanation:

Solve the inequality

5x - 18 ≥ 2(4x - 15)

Expand the expression

5x - 18 ≥ 8x - 30

Rearrange the terms

5x - 8x ≥ -30 + 18

Combine like terms

-3x ≥ -30 + 18

Calculate

-3x ≥ -12

Divide both sides

x ≤ -12/-3

Calculate

x ≤ 4

HOPE THIS HELPS AND HAVE A NICE DAY <3
