Q. Solve for jj. \newline3j+129(j+20)3j + 12 \leq -9(j + 20)\newlineWrite your answer with jj first, followed by an inequality symbol.\newline______
  1. Add 9j9j to both sides: Now, add 9j9j to both sides to get all the jj terms on one side.\newline3j+9j+129j+9j1803j + 9j + 12 \leq -9j + 9j - 180\newline12j+1218012j + 12 \leq -180
  2. Subtract 1212 from both sides: Next, subtract 1212 from both sides to isolate the term with jj.12j+12121801212j + 12 - 12 \leq -180 - 1212j19212j \leq -192
  3. Divide both sides by 1212: Finally, divide both sides by 1212 to solve for jj.12j1219212\frac{12j}{12} \leq \frac{-192}{12}j16j \leq -16
