The answer is C. r≤18.


You can calculate this by multiplying 6 on both sides of the inequality to isolate the variable x.



(r)/(6)·6≤3·6

r≤18

Answer


C. r ≤18


Step-by-step explanation

When solving inequalities, note better when dealing with a negative sign since the inequality changes.

For the inequality given, the solution is as follows;


r/6 ≤ 3

Multiply both sides of the inequality by 6.


r ≤ 3×6

r ≤ 18
