question
select the values that make the inequality $-2b > 36$ true. then write an equivalent inequality, in terms of $b$.
(numbers written in order from least to greatest going across.)

answer attempt 1 out of 2

-28 -23 -21
-19 -18 -17
-15 -13 -8
equivalent inequality: $b$ $\square$

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate $b$ (divide by -2)

When dividing an inequality by a negative number, reverse the inequality sign:
$$\frac{-2b}{-2} < \frac{36}{-2}$$

Step2: Simplify to find equivalent inequality

$$b < -18$$

Step3: Identify valid values

Select numbers less than -18: -28, -23, -21, -19

Answer:

Valid values: -28, -23, -21, -19
Equivalent Inequality: $b < -18$
