Solution Steps

To solve the inequality \(4(t-1) - 6t \geq t + 8\), we need to simplify and isolate \(t\) on one side of the inequality. Here are the high-level steps:

  1. Distribute and combine like terms on the left side.
  2. Move all terms involving \(t\) to one side and constant terms to the other side.
  3. Solve for \(t\).
Step 1: Distribute and Combine Like Terms

First, distribute the \(4\) on the left side of the inequality: \[ 4(t - 1) - 6t \geq t + 8 \implies 4t - 4 - 6t \geq t + 8 \] Combine like terms: \[ -2t - 4 \geq t + 8 \]

Step 2: Move All Terms Involving \(t\) to One Side

Add \(2t\) to both sides to isolate the terms involving \(t\): \[ -4 \geq 3t + 8 \]

Step 3: Move Constant Terms to the Other Side

Subtract \(8\) from both sides to isolate the term involving \(t\): \[ -12 \geq 3t \]

Step 4: Solve for \(t\)

Divide both sides by \(3\) to solve for \(t\): \[ -\frac{12}{3} \geq t \implies -4 \geq t \implies t \leq -4 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{t \leq -4}\)
