Answer:

B.
b \leq 1(7)/(10)

Explanation:

Isolate b in order to solve the inequality. Subtract
(9)/(5) on both sides of the inequality, then simplify. (You will need to convert the fractions in order to subtract and simplify further.)


(7)/(2) \geq b + (9)/(5) \\(7)/(2) -(9)/(5) \geq b + (9)/(5) -(9)/(5) \\(35)/(10) -(18)/(10)\geq b\\(17)/(10) \geq b\\1(7)/(10) \geq b

Thus,
b \leq 1(7)/(10).
