Q. Solve for bb.\newlineb+16<17b + 16 < 17 or b12>6b - 12 > 6\newlineWrite your answer as a compound inequality with integers.\newlineChoices:\newline(A)b<1b < 1 or b>18b > 18\newline(B)1<b<181 < b < 18\newline(C)1b<181 \leq b < 18\newline(D)b1b \leq 1 or b>18b > 18
  1. Isolate bb: To solve the inequality b + 16 < 17, we need to isolate bb.
    b + 16 < 17
    Subtract 1616 from both sides to isolate bb.
    b + 16 - 16 < 17 - 16
    b < 1
  2. Solve b + 16 < 17: Now, let's solve the second inequality b - 12 > 6.\newlineb - 12 > 6\newlineAdd 1212 to both sides to isolate bb.\newlineb - 12 + 12 > 6 + 12\newlineb > 18
  3. Solve b - 12 > 6: Combine the two inequalities to form the compound inequality.\newlineThe solution is b < 1 or b > 18.
