To solve the inequality, we can start by isolating the variable m by adding 1 to both sides of the inequality:
-1 - m + 1 ≥ 1 + 1
Simplifying:
-m ≥ 2
Next, we need to get m by itself by dividing both sides of the inequality by -1. However, since we are dividing by a negative number, we need to flip the inequality symbol:
m ≤ -2
To graph the solution, we can draw a number line and plot -2 as a closed circle to indicate that it is included in the solution. Then, we shade the left side of the number line to represent all values less than or equal to -2.
