Solution :-

- 0.5 x - 5 < - 1.5

=> -0.5x < 3.5

[ multiplying inequality by ( - ) -ve sign changes the inequality ]

=> 0.5x > - 3.5

=> x > -7

Hence , -5 is the possible solution for the inequality because x is greater than -7 !

So , Lena is correct !!

Answer:

$b=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational equation is

$\frac{2b-5}{b-2} -2=\frac{3}{b+2}$

The Least Common Denominator is $(b+2)(b-2)$ .

Multiply each term in the equation by the LCD.

$(b+2)(b-2)\times \frac{2b-5}{b-2} -(b+2)(b-2)\times2=(b+2)(b-2)\times\frac{3}{b+2}$

Simplify;

$(b+2)\times \frac{2b-5}{1} -2(b+2)(b-2)=(b-2)\times\frac{3}{1}$

$(b+2)(2b-5) -2(b+2)(b-2)=3(b-2)$

Expand and group similar terms

$2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2(b^2-4)=3b-6$

$2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2b^2+8=3b-6$

$-b-2=3b-6$

$3b+b=-2+6$

$4b=4$

$b=1$
