Q. Solve for r.−1.3r−15+12.2r>17.16+17.6rWrite your answer using a decimal, whole number, or fraction in lowest terms.
Simplify the inequality: First, let's simplify the inequality by combining like terms on each side:-1.3r + 12.2r > 17.16 + 17.6rCombine the r terms on the left:(12.2r - 1.3r) > 17.16 + 17.6r10.9r > 17.16 + 17.6r
Combine r terms: Next, we need to get all the r terms on one side of the inequality. Subtract 17.6r from both sides:10.9r - 17.6r > 17.16-6.7r > 17.16
Get r terms on one side: Now, solve for r by dividing both sides by −6.7. Remember, dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality:r < \frac{17.16}{-6.7}r < -2.56
