You can put this solution on YOUR website!
8 − 5x ≥ x + 7 \r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve it like you would a linear equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-5x - x ≥ 7 - 8\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-6x ≥ - 1\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We now divide both sides by -6. Since we are to divide by a negative number, \r
