Question

Choose the solution to this inequality.

1/2 ≥ 6+ /1/00
0 A 62/
OB b≤170
O c. b≤-2/3
OD. 6 <2²/

Answer 1

B. b≤ 17/10

Explanation:

7/2 ≥ b+9/5

7/2 ≥ b/1 + 9/5(balance equation by adding /1 to b)

• b/1 +9/5
• 5b+9/5(LCM)

7/2≥5b+9/5 ( cross multiply)

• 35≥2(5b+9)
• 35≥10b+18
• 35-18 ≥10b(collect like terms)
• 17≥10b(divide both sides by 10)
• 17/10≥ 10b/10
• 17/10≥b
• b≤17/10(answer)
