8-3x-2x\leq -7
Subtract 2x from both sides.
8-5x\leq -7
Combine -3x and -2x to get -5x.
-5x\leq -7-8
Subtract 8 from both sides.
-5x\leq -15
Subtract 8 from -7 to get -15.
x\geq \frac{-15}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5. Since -5 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x\geq 3
Divide -15 by -5 to get 3.
