Set 11: Linear Inequalities (Advanced)

Choice A is correct. Choice A is the correct answer. Variables on both sides require systematic collection. 1. Subtract 2 x: $8- 3 x - 2 x \geq 3$, giving $8- 5 x \geq 3$ 2. Subtract 8: $-5 x \geq -5$ 3. Divide by -5: $x \leq 1$ (REVERSE!) Strategic Tip: Collect all variable terms on one side first, then isolate the variable. Choice B is incorrect because it fails to reverse when dividing by -5. Choice C is incorrect because it might come from adding 8 and 3 instead of proper solving. Choice D is incorrect because it combines wrong value and wrong direction.
