Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

2(4 + 2x) ≥ 5x + 5

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. [Distributive Property] Distribute 2:                                                                 8 + 4x ≥ 5x + 5
  2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 5x on both sides:                       8 - x ≥ 5
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 8 on both sides:                        -x ≥ -3
  4. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -1 on both sides:                                 x ≤ 3
