Isn’t the above solution missing a portion of the original equation?
Let's first rewrite the inequality 4 - 8y ≥ 4 in terms of y. This means we want to solve for y and leave it by itself on the left-hand side:
4 - 8y ≥ 4
-8y ≥ 0 [subtract 4 from both sides]
y ≤ 0 [divide both sides by -8; the inequality flips direction because we divided both sides by a negative number]
Therefore, y ≤ 0 is the equivalent inequality. From here, all you have to do is select the values in the table that are less than or equal to 0 because that would make the inequality true. From the looks of it, that would be all of them because all the values in the table are negative.
Hope this was helpful.
