To determine the values that are in the solution set of the inequality, we can solve the inequality for x.

−23x + 13 ≥ −1

To isolate x, we can subtract 13 from both sides of the inequality:

−23x ≥ −1 - 13
−23x ≥ -14

Finally, we can divide both sides of the inequality by -23. Remember that when we divide or multiply an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the inequality sign must be reversed:

x ≤ -14 / -23
x ≤ 14/23

The solution set of the inequality is all the values of x that are less than or equal to 14/23.

Therefore, the values in the solution set are 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23.

Answer choices 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23 are all correct.

To find the solution set of the inequality −23x + 13 ≥ −1, we need to isolate x.

−23x + 13 ≥ −1

First, subtract 13 from both sides to get:

−23x ≥ −14

Next, divide both sides by −23. Remember that when we divide or multiply by a negative number, we need to reverse the inequality sign:

x ≤ 14/23

Therefore, any value of x that is less than or equal to 14/23 is in the solution set.

Now let's determine which values from the given options are less than or equal to 14/23.

Option 19: 19 is not less than or equal to 14/23.
Option 20: 20 is not less than or equal to 14/23.
Option 21: 21 is not less than or equal to 14/23.
Option 22: 22 is not less than or equal to 14/23.
Option 23: 23 is not less than or equal to 14/23.

Therefore, none of the given options are in the solution set.

To determine which values are in the solution set of the inequality −23x + 13 ≥ −1, we need to find the values of x that satisfy the inequality.

First, let's solve the inequality step by step:

Step 1: Subtract 13 from both sides of the inequality:
−23x + 13 - 13 ≥ −1 - 13
−23x ≥ −14

Step 2: Divide both sides of the inequality by −23. When dividing by a negative number, we need to flip the direction of the inequality.
x ≤ −14 ÷ −23
x ≤ 14/23

Therefore, the values of x that satisfy the inequality are x ≤ 14/23.

Now, let's check which of the given options are within the solution set:

19 is not within the solution set as 19 is greater than 14/23.
20 is not within the solution set as 20 is greater than 14/23.
21 is not within the solution set as 21 is greater than 14/23.
22 is not within the solution set as 22 is greater than 14/23.
23 is not within the solution set as 23 is greater than 14/23.

None of the given options are within the solution set of the inequality.
