Q. 32q92q18 \frac{3}{2} q \leq \frac{9}{2} q-18 \newlineWhich of the following best describes the solutions to the inequality shown?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) q3 q \leq 3 \newline(B) q3 q \geq 3 \newline(C) q6 q \leq 6 \newline(D) q6 q \geq 6
  1. Write inequality: Write down the inequality to start solving it.\newline(32)q(92)q18(\frac{3}{2})q \leq (\frac{9}{2})q - 18
  2. Isolate q terms: To isolate q, we need to get all the q terms on one side. Subtract (32)q(\frac{3}{2})q from both sides of the inequality.\newline(32)q(32)q(92)q(32)q18(\frac{3}{2})q - (\frac{3}{2})q \leq (\frac{9}{2})q - (\frac{3}{2})q - 18\newlineThis simplifies to:\newline0(62)q180 \leq (\frac{6}{2})q - 18
  3. Simplify right side: Simplify the right side of the inequality by combining like terms. 03q180 \leq 3q - 18
  4. Add 1818 to both sides: Add 1818 to both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with qq.\newline0+183q18+180 + 18 \leq 3q - 18 + 18\newlineThis simplifies to:\newline183q18 \leq 3q
  5. Divide by 33: Divide both sides of the inequality by 33 to solve for qq.1833q3\frac{18}{3} \leq \frac{3q}{3}This simplifies to:6q6 \leq q
  6. Rewrite inequality: Rewrite the inequality in a more conventional way. q6q \geq 6
