To solve the inequality -32.5 - 6b ≥ 48.5, we can first subtract -32.5 from both sides:
-6b ≥ 81
Next, we can divide both sides by -6. However, remember that when we divide or multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, we need to flip the inequality sign:
b ≤ -13.5
Among the given options, only -13.5 satisfies this inequality.
