–42≥17–p

Sure, let's solve the inequality step by step:

–42 ≥ 17 – p

First, we subtract 17 from both sides to isolate the variable on one side:

-42 - 17 ≥ -p

This simplifies to:

-59 ≥ -p

Then, we multiply both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative sign in front of p. Remember, when we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the inequality sign changes:

59 ≤ p

So, the solution to the inequality –42 ≥ 17 – p is p ≥ 59.
