1. **State the problem:** We need to find which values of $x$ satisfy the inequality $$86 \leq 11x.$$
2. **Write the formula and rules:** To solve for $x$, we divide both sides of the inequality by 11. Since 11 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
3. **Solve the inequality:**
$$86 \leq 11x$$
Divide both sides by 11:
$$\frac{86}{\cancel{11}} \leq \frac{11x}{\cancel{11}}$$
Simplifies to:
$$\frac{86}{11} \leq x$$
4. **Evaluate the fraction:**
$$\frac{86}{11} = 7.8181...$$
5. **Interpret the solution:**
The inequality means $x$ must be greater than or equal to approximately 7.8181.
6. **Check each given value:**
- $x=12$: $12 \geq 7.8181$ (True)
- $x=9$: $9 \geq 7.8181$ (True)
- $x=5$: $5 \geq 7.8181$ (False)
- $x=1$: $1 \geq 7.8181$ (False)
**Final answer:** The values $x=12$ and $x=9$ satisfy the inequality. The values $x=5$ and $x=1$ do not.
Note: The user's checked boxes for $x=12$, $x=9$, and $x=1$ include one incorrect choice ($x=1$).
