The answer choice that is a solution to the inequality 1.5x + 3.75 is:

Therefore, option b is correct

To find the solution to the inequality 1.5x + 3.75, you need to substitute each answer choice and see which one satisfies the inequality.

a) For x = 0:

1.5(0) + 3.75 = 3.75, which is not less than 0. So, it's not a solution.

b) For x = 1:

1.5(1) + 3.75 = 1.5 + 3.75 = 5.25, which is greater than 0. So, it is a solution.

c) For x = -1:

1.5(-1) + 3.75 = -1.5 + 3.75 = 2.25, which is greater than 0. So, it is a solution.

d) For x = 1.5:

1.5(1.5) + 3.75 = 2.25 + 3.75 = 6, which is greater than 0. So, it is a solution.

Therefore, answer choice b) 1 is the solution to the inequality 1.5x + 3.75.

the complete Question is given below:

Which answer choice is a solution to the inequality 1.5x+3.75?

a) 0

b) 1

c) -1

d) 1.5
