To solve the inequality ( frac{b}{-1} leq 5 ), you can start by multiplying both sides by -1. However, remember that when you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, you need to reverse the inequality sign.

[

b geq -5

]

So, the solution is ( b geq -5 ). This means that ( b ) can be any number that is greater than or equal to -5.
