The answer to this is 4 ≤ x
In order to find this, follow the order of operations.
−7 ≥ 13 − 5x ----> Subtract 13 from both sides
-20 ≥ -5x -----> Divide by -5
4 ≤ x (NOTE: the sign changes direction when dividing by a negative.
Solve for x:
−7 ≥ 13 − 5x
Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.
−7≥ − 5x + 13
Step 2: Flip the equation.
−5x + 13 ≤ −7
Step 3: Subtract 13 from both sides.
−5x + 13 − 13 ≤ − 7 − 13
−5x ≤ − 20
Step 4: Divide both sides by -5.
−5x/ −5 ≤ −20/ −5
x ≥ 4
Answer: x ≥ 4
