Question

solve the linear inequality for b. graph your answer on the number line. then write the solution in inequality notation. round your answers to the nearest hundredth.
-20.25 < 13.5b
show your work here
hint: to add infinity (∞), type \infinity\

Explanation:

Step1: Divide both sides by 13.5

$$\frac{-20.25}{13.5}<\frac{13.5b}{13.5}$$

Step2: Simplify the expression

$$- 1.5 < b$$

Answer:

The solution in inequality notation is \(b > - 1.5\). On the number - line, there is an open circle at \(-1.5\) and the line extends to the right towards positive infinity.
