A.
s ≥ –2

B.
s ≤ –2

C.
s ≥ –18

D.
s ≤ –18

Answer 1

A. s greater than or equal to -2
B. s less than or equal to -2
C. s greater than or equal to -18
D. s less than or equal to -18

Answer 2

\[\frac{ -s }{ 3 } \ge6 \]
multiply both sides by -1 to reverse inequality
so it becomes \[\frac{ s }{ 3 }\le 6\]
multiply both sides by 3
\[\frac{ s }{ 3 } 3 \le (-6) 3\]

Can you do the rest?

Answer 3

Both 3's on the left side of the equation will cancel out, so all you have is -6*3.

And that equals ?

Answer 4

Do you know?

Answer 5

Well since you're not replying.. (-6)+(-6)+(-6)= -18

So your answer is \[s \le -18.\]

Answer 6

Hopefully you understand.
