Answer:

n ≥ -12

Explanation:

Change the less than or equals sign to an equals sign

-7(n+7) = 35

Use distributive property to figure out what -7(n+7) equals

-7n-49 = 35

Add 49 to both sides

-7n = 84

Divide both sides by -7

n = -12

Bkuz you want n -7(n+) to be less than or equal to 35 you have to change the equals sign in n = -12 to a greater or equal to sign

Hope this helps!
