The correct answer is C I double checked my work.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x - 19) ≤ -6 + 2x                           Remove the brackets on the left

-5x +95 ≤ -6 +2x                             Add 5x to both sides.

95 ≤ -6 + 2x +5x                             combine

95 ≤ -6 + 7x                                    Add 6 to both sides

101 ≤ 7x                                           Divide by 7

101 /7 ≤ x                  

What you do next is both tricky and time consuming. You have to get x on the left and the fraction on the right. So subtract x from both sides. And subtract 101/7 from both sides. They both become minus.

101/7 - 101/7 ≤ -101/7 + x

0 ≤ -101/7+ x                                   Now subtract x from both sides

-x ≤ -101/7 + x -x

-x ≤  -101/7

Now comes the really nasty part. You have to get x > 0 and -101/7>0 That's easy enough. You just multiply both sides by -1

x ≤ 101/7

But when you do that (and this where you have to pay attention) the ≤ becomes ≥

x≥ 101/7
