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
The short answer: yes.
Explanation: every rational number can be expressed as, well, a ratio. For instance, 5 can be expressed as 5/1 and 1.75 can be expressed as 7/4. Irrational numbers are not rational. For instance, pi... there is no ration for pi.
Answer:
can you explain yourself more please
Well for two positive numbers subtracted to equal a negative number, the first number must have a value that is less than the second number. (Ex. 3-4= -1) In this case, you can conclude that x is less than y! (x<y)
The total loss is 84 loss (-84).
