30a+2800-40a\leq 7500
Use the distributive property to multiply 40 by 70-a.
-10a+2800\leq 7500
Combine 30a and -40a to get -10a.
-10a\leq 7500-2800
Subtract 2800 from both sides.
-10a\leq 4700
Subtract 2800 from 7500 to get 4700.
a\geq \frac{4700}{-10}
Divide both sides by -10. Since -10 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
a\geq -470
Divide 4700 by -10 to get -470.
