The sum of two numbers is at most 6, and one of the numbers is -2

The number can be anything equal then or less than 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is at most 6 (note, one of the numbers is -2), meaning:

x + (-2) ≤ 6

Isolate the x. Add 2 to both sides

x - 2 (+2) ≤ 6 (+2)

x ≤  6 + 2

x ≤ 8

The number can be anything equal then or less than 8.

i believe the correct answer is b.

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
