A) 
Since 5 of the books are new, that means that the other books are used. So, there are 11-5=6. The ratio would be 5:6.

b) 
The ratio is 6:11. You get the 6 from the above problem.

Hope this helps!

5q greater than or equal to 8q -3/2
kakasveta [241]

5q ≥ 8q - 3/2

<em><u>Add 3/2 to both sides.</u></em>

3/2 + 5q ≥ 8q

<em><u>Subtract 5q from both sides.</u></em>

3/2 ≥ 3q

<em><u>Multiply both sides by 2.</u></em>

3 ≥ 6q

<em><u>Divide both sides by 6.</u></em>

0.5 ≥ q.

The value of q is less than or equal to 0.5.
