-x-2-5x\leq 4x-2
To find the opposite of x+2, find the opposite of each term.
-6x-2\leq 4x-2
Combine -x and -5x to get -6x.
-6x-2-4x\leq -2
Subtract 4x from both sides.
-10x-2\leq -2
Combine -6x and -4x to get -10x.
-10x\leq -2+2
Add 2 to both sides.
-10x\leq 0
Add -2 and 2 to get 0.
x\geq 0
Product of two numbers is ≤0 if one is ≥0 and the other is ≤0. Since -10\leq 0, x must be ≥0.
