2(x + 1) - (-x + 5) < = -18
2x + 2 + x - 5 < = -18
3x - 3 < = -18
3x < = -18 + 3
3x < = -15
x < = -15/3
x < = - 5 <==

Answer:

Solve the following inequality: 2(x + 1) – (–x + 5) ≤ –18. A. x ≤ –9 B. x ≤ –20 C. x ≤ –37 D. x ≤ –5

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x + 1) - (-x + 5) ≤ -18

2x + 2 + x - 5 ≤ - 18

3x - 3 ≤ - 18

3x ≤ - 15

x ≤ - 15/3 ≤ - 5

The answer is: D. x ≤ - 5
