2\left(4x+5\right)\leq 14
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, the least common multiple of 2,4. Since 4 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
8x+10\leq 14
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 4x+5.
8x\leq 14-10
Subtract 10 from both sides.
8x\leq 4
Subtract 10 from 14 to get 4.
x\leq \frac{4}{8}
Divide both sides by 8. Since 8 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
x\leq \frac{1}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{4}{8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.
