Solve -3geq-m/5

$$- 3 \geq - \frac { m } { 5 }$$

Solve for m

$$m\geq 15$$

Solution Steps

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5. Since 5 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.

$$-15\geq -m$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side. This changes the sign direction.

$$-m\leq -15$$

Divide both sides by -1. Since -1 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.

$$m\geq \frac{-15}{-1}$$

Fraction \frac{-15}{-1} can be simplified to 15 by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$m\geq 15$$
