-2x-10\leq -4x+8
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by x+5.
-2x-10+4x\leq 8
Add 4x to both sides.
2x-10\leq 8
Combine -2x and 4x to get 2x.
2x\leq 8+10
Add 10 to both sides.
2x\leq 18
Add 8 and 10 to get 18.
x\leq \frac{18}{2}
Divide both sides by 2. Since 2 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
x\leq 9
Divide 18 by 2 to get 9.
