What can you do to isolate a variable in an inequality?
All real numbers.
Inequalities can be solved in the same way as equations, by performing inverse operations on both sides until the variable is isolated. The only difference is that when we divide or multiply by a negative number, we must reverse the inequality sign.

LHS-6z≤RHS-6z
We have reduced the inequality to a statement that is always true. This means that all real numbers are the solution to the given inequality.
