Question

Answer 1

Answer:

-22.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Then, because the problem states "is at least" we know this is an inequality problem and specifically the inequality operator is:

≥

Now, we can write and solve the inequality as:

5(x+26)≥19(5x(5×26)≥195x+130≥195x+130−130≥19−1305x+0≥−1115x≥-1115x5≥−11155x5≥−22.2x≥−22.2

The number is at least

−22.2 or the number is greater than or equal to −22.2
