800-32a+27a\leq 50
Use the distributive property to multiply 32 by 25-a.
800-5a\leq 50
Combine -32a and 27a to get -5a.
-5a\leq 50-800
Subtract 800 from both sides.
-5a\leq -750
Subtract 800 from 50 to get -750.
a\geq \frac{-750}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5. Since -5 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
a\geq 150
Divide -750 by -5 to get 150.
