The product of -8 and a number is at least -56 What algebraic inequality represents the phrase and what are the solutions?

9514 1404 393

Step-by-step explanation:

"At least" means "greater than or equal to." If the number is represented by x, then the phrase is represented by ...

  -8x ≥ -56

The solution is found by dividing by -8, which reverses the inequality symbol:

  x ≤ 7

3rd box is the answer

step-by-step explanation:

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.
