Answer:

The solution is:

$-7r-4\ge \:\:4r+2\quad \::\quad \:\begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:r\le \:\:-\frac{6}{11}\:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Decimal:}&\:r\le \:\:-0.54545\dots \:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:(-\infty \:\:,\:-\frac{6}{11}]\end{bmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$-7r-4\ge \:4r+2$

Add 4 to both sides

$-7r-4+4\ge \:4r+2+4$

Simplify

$-7r\ge \:4r+6$

Subtract 4r from both sides

$-7r-4r\ge \:4r+6-4r$

Simplify

$-11r\ge \:6$

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverses the inequality)

$\left(-11r\right)\left(-1\right)\le \:6\left(-1\right)$

Simplify

$11r\le \:-6$

Divide both sides by 11

$\frac{11r}{11}\le \frac{-6}{11}$

Simplify

$r\le \:-\frac{6}{11}$

Therefore, the solution is:

$-7r-4\ge \:\:4r+2\quad \::\quad \:\begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:r\le \:\:-\frac{6}{11}\:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Decimal:}&\:r\le \:\:-0.54545\dots \:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:(-\infty \:\:,\:-\frac{6}{11}]\end{bmatrix}$
