Remark
The key step is just to subtract 5 from both sides. The pointed of the inequality still points away from the variable and towards the number. As long as that remains true, the correct answer can be found.
Solution
2.7 ≤ b + 5 Subtract 5 from both sides.
2.7 - 5 ≤ b
- 2.3 ≤ b Write with the variable on the left.
b ≥ - 2.3 <<<< answer
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
GCF: the greatest common factor of numerator and denominator is a factor that can be removed to reduce the fraction.
<em>Example</em>
The numerator and denominator of 6/8 have GCF of 2:
6/8 = (2·3)/(2·4)
The fraction can be reduced by canceling those factors.
(2·3)/(2·4) = (2/2)·(3/4) = 1·(3/4) = 3/4
___
LCM: the least common multiple of the denominators is suitable as a common denominator. Addition and subtraction are easily performed on the numerators when the denominator is common.
<em>Example</em>
The fractions 2/3 and 1/5 can be added using a common denominator of LCM(3, 5) = 15.
2/3 + 1/5 = 10/15 + 3/15 = (10+3)/15 = 13/15

2. Table
3. t (years since 1990)
4. n (# of cigarettes sold)
5. (t, n)
6. You can see the distribution of the data pretty neatly. There are also many more advantages including it's easier to calculate standard deviation, easier to see the mean, mode and median, and it's also much easier to just tell the extrema of the dataset by just looking at the scattergram.
Are there any answer choices?
Answer:
Median, box and whisker plots are all about the median
