![### Solving Linear Inequalities
The problem presented is to solve the following inequality:
\[
-13 + 8x \leq 12 + 9x
\]
**Steps to Solve the Inequality:**
1. **Simplify the Inequality:**
Move all terms involving \(x\) to one side and constants to the other side.
\[
-13 + 8x - 9x \leq 12
\]
Simplify the \(x\) terms:
\[
-13 - x \leq 12
\]
2. **Isolate \(x\):**
Add 13 to both sides to isolate the \(x\) term.
\[
-x \leq 25
\]
3. **Solve for \(x\):**
Multiply both sides by -1, remembering to reverse the inequality sign:
\[
x \geq -25
\]
The solution to the inequality is:
\[
x \geq -25
\]
**Expressing the Solution as an Interval:**
Enter your answer as an interval. Use "oo" (two lower case "o"s) to represent an infinity sign.
The solution in interval notation is:
\[
[-25, \infty)
\]
**Input the Solution:**
Enter your answer in the following format:
\[
[-25, \infty)
