Solve b over negative 5.6 is less than or equal to negative 4.9 for b.

b ≥ 27.44
b ≤ 0.7
b ≤ −0.7
b ≥ −10.5

1 answer

To solve the inequality, we can isolate the variable, b:

b / -5.6 ≤ -4.9

To remove the fraction, we can multiply both sides of the inequality by -5.6. However, when we multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the inequality changes:

b / -5.6 * -5.6 ≥ -4.9 * -5.6

This simplifies to:

b ≥ 27.44

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is:

b ≥ 27.44
