Answer :

Given:

Given that the four inequalities.

And the solution.

[tex]x=5[/tex]

Required:

To find which inequality would x = 5 be a solution.

Explanation:

(1)

[tex]\begin{gathered} x-4>8 \\ 5-4=1<8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore x=5 is not a solution.

(2)

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+7\ge12 \\ 5+7=12 \\ 12\ge12 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, x=5 is a solution.

(3)

[tex]\begin{gathered} 8x\leq25.4 \\ 8(5)=40 \\ 40>25.4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, x=5 is not a solution.

(4)

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{45}{x}<9 \\ \frac{45}{5}=9 \\ 9=9 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore x=5 is not a solution.

Final Answer:

x=5 is as solution for the inequality,

[tex]x+7\ge12[/tex]
