solving multi - step inequ
lesson 19
fluency and skills practice

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply both sides by -2 (reverse inequality)

$\frac{d + 5}{-2} \times (-2) \geq -\frac{3}{2} \times (-2)$
Simplify: $d + 5 \geq 3$

Step2: Subtract 5 from both sides

$d + 5 - 5 \geq 3 - 5$
Simplify: $d \geq -2$

Answer:

$d \geq -2$
