Answer:

Answer: A

Explanation:


81 - 1 (1)/(5) x \leqslant 55

subtract 81 from both sides:


(81 - 1 (1)/(5) x) - 81 \leqslant 55 - 81 \\ \\ - 1 (1)/(5) x \leqslant - 26

express the mixed fraction into a proper fraction:


- (6)/(5)x \leqslant - 26

multiply -5 on both sides:


( - (6)/(5) x) * 5 \leqslant ( - 26 * - 5) \\ \\ 6x \leqslant 130

divide all sides by 6:


(6x)/(6) \leqslant (130)/(6) \\ \\ x \leqslant 21 (2)/(3)

Answer:

x≥ 21 2/3

Explanation:

81 - 1 1/5x ≤ 55

Subtract 81 from each side

81 -81- 1 1/5x ≤ 55-18

- 1 1/5x ≤ -26

Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

-(5*1+1)/5 x ≤ -26

-6/5 x ≤ -26

Multiply each side by -5/6, remembering to flip the inequality

-5/6 *-6/5x≥ -26 * -5/6

x≥130/6

Changing back to a mixed number

x≥ 21 2/3
