Question

5b-b-1 > or equal too-11

Answer 1

Answer:

 b ≥ $-\frac{5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression:

      5b  - b  - 1 ≥ -11

Now to solve this problem, we must be aware of some rules of inequality.

When dividing or multiplying with a negative value, the sign of the inequality must change;

         5b  - b  - 1 ≥ -11

             4b  - 1 ≥ -11

  Add + 1 to both sides;

            4b -1 + 1 ≥ -11 + 1

            4b ≥ -10

Now divided both sides by 4;

            $\frac{4b}{4}$ ≥ $\frac{-10}{4}$  

           b ≥ $-\frac{5}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

5b - b - 1 ≥ -11

4b - 1 ≥ -11

     +1    +1

4b ≥ -10

4/4     -10/4

b ≥ -2.5
