The answer: - 2.3 ≥ b ; which does not correspond with any of the answer choices; but most closely corresponds with: "Answer choice: [B]: b > -2.3 ."
_____________
Step-by-step explanation:
_________________
Assuming we have:
_______________________
2.7 is greater than or equal to "(b + 5)";
_______________________________
We would write:
_________________
→ 2.7 ≥ b + 5 ;
_________________
→ Subtract "5" from EACH side:
_________________
→ 2.7 − 5 ≥ b + 5 − 5

→ - 2.3 ≥ b ; which does not correspond with any of the answer choices; but most closely corresponds with: "Answer choice: [B]: b > -2.3 ."
