Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Analyze the inequalities
The given inequalities are:
\[
x \geq -8 \quad \text{and} \quad x \geq 2
\]
We need to find the integers that satisfy both inequalities simultaneously.
Step 2: Determine the overlapping range
The first inequality \(x \geq -8\) includes all integers greater than or equal to \(-8\). The second inequality \(x \geq 2\) includes all integers greater than or equal to \(2\). The overlapping range of these two inequalities is all integers greater than or equal to \(2\).
Step 3: Identify the correct choice
The correct choice is:
\[
\text{A. All integers greater than or equal to } 2 \text{ satisfy both inequalities.}
\]
Final Answer
\[
\boxed{\text{A. All integers greater than or equal to } 2 \text{ satisfy both inequalities.}}
\]
