The answer: - 2.3 ≥ b ; which does not correspond with any of the answer choices; but most closely corresponds with: "Answer choice: [B]: b > -2.3 ." _____________ Explanation: _________________ Assuming we have: _______________________ 2.7 is greater than <u><em>or</em></u> equal to "(b + 5)"; _______________________________ We would write: _________________ → 2.7 ≥ b + 5 ; _________________ → Subtract "5" from EACH side: _________________ → 2.7 − 5 ≥ b + 5 − 5
→ - 2.3 ≥ b ; which does not correspond with any of the answer choices; but most closely corresponds with: "Answer choice: [B]: b > -2.3 ." ____________________
