Solve the inequality -2/11 j _< 8

j ≥ -44

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/11 j ≤ 8

Multiply each side by -11/2 to isolate j.  Flip the inequality since we are multiplying by a negative

-11/2 * -11/2 j ≥ 8 * -11/2

j ≥ -44

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality given is:

To solve the inequality, we must get the variable j by itself.

j is being multiplied by -2/11. To reverse this, we must multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction.

Flip the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) to find the reciprocal.

Multiply both sides of the equation by -11/2.

Since we multiplied by a negative number, we must flip the inequality sign.

Multiply 8 and -11/2

The solution to the inequality is:

the probability is 0
