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

Question

b ≤ 0.7
b ≤ −0.7
b ≥ −10.5

Answer 1

To solve the inequality b/(-5.6) ≤ -4.9, we can multiply both sides of the inequality by -5.6.
However, since we are multiplying by a negative number, we need to reverse the inequality sign.

(-5.6)(b/(-5.6)) ≥ (-5.6)(-4.9)

Simplifying, we get:

b ≥ 28.84

So the solution for b is b ≥ 28.84.

However, to account for the division by a negative number, we need to reverse the sign of the inequality again.

Therefore, the final solution is:

b ≤ -28.84

In interval notation, this can be written as:

(-∞, -28.84]
