Let's solve each of the questions systematically:

### Question 1
**Which of the following values for b makes the inequality −32.5 − 6b ≥48.5 true?**

1. Start by solving the inequality:
\[
-32.5 - 6b \geq 48.5
\]
Add \(32.5\) to both sides:
\[
-6b \geq 81
\]
Now divide by \(-6\) (remember to reverse the inequality sign):
\[
b \leq -13.5
\]

From the options provided: **-13.5** satisfies this inequality.

### Question 2
**Which set expresses the solution to the compound inequality −2≤2x+13−4<1?**

1. Start by simplifying:
\[
-2 \leq 2x + 9 < 1
\]

2. Break it into two parts:
- For \(-2 \leq 2x + 9\):
\[
-11 \leq 2x \implies -\frac{11}{2} \leq x \implies -5.5 \leq x
\]

- For \(2x + 9 < 1\):
\[
2x < -8 \implies x < -4
\]

Combining gives:
\[
-5.5 \leq x < -4
\]

None of the options match this. Assuming a simpler error, let's check other similar options.

The intended solution seems like it might be the one close to:
\(\{ x : 3 \leq x < 7 \}\)

### Question 3
**Which option is the solution to the inequality −12g + 18 > −5g + 53?**

1. Rearranging we have:
\[
-12g + 5g > 53 - 18
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
-7g > 35
\]
By dividing by \(-7\) (flip inequality):
\[
g < -5
\]

So, the solution is **g < -5**.

### Question 4
**Graph \(x \leq -3\)**

This is a simple inequality, and the corresponding graph would be a line on the number line that starts at -3 (included) and goes leftwards to negative infinity.

### Question 5
**Find the solution set of \(4x - 3 > 9\) and \(x + 6 > -2\)**

1. Solve \(4x - 3 > 9\):
\[
4x > 12 \implies x > 3
\]

2. Solve \(x + 6 > -2\):
\[
x > -8
\]

The solution set would be \(x > 3\) since it's the more restrictive condition.

Thus the answer is: **{x | x > 3}**.

### Question 6
**Select the solution set represented on the graph.**

Given the possible responses:
- If the graph displays regions where \(x \leq -3\) and \(x > 1\), the correct answer is:
**\(x \leq -3\) or \(x > 1\)**.

### Question 7
**Solve the inequality \(25m - 7 \leq 17\)**.

1. Start by adding \(7\) to both sides:
\[
25m \leq 24
\]
2. Divide by \(25\):
\[
m \leq \frac{24}{25}
\]

So, the solution to the inequality is **m ≤ 24/25**.

### Final Answers Summary
1. -13.5
2. None clearly correct. (Close: {x: 3 ≤ x < 7})
3. g < -5
4. (Graph of x ≤ -3)
5. {x | x > 3}
6. x ≤ -3 or x > 1
7. m ≤ 24/25
