How do you solve and graph #x + 2 ≤ -3 #?

Answer 1

See explanation!

In order to solve this, we need to move the constant to the right side and change its sign #x<=-3-2# #x<=-5# graph{x<=-5 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

To solve and graph the inequality ( x + 2 \leq -3 ), you first subtract 2 from both sides to isolate x, obtaining ( x \leq -5 ). The graph of this inequality is a solid line at ( x = -5 ) with a shaded area to the left, indicating all values less than or equal to -5.
