Answer:
The answer to your question is the letter A) x ≥ 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Inequality
2(4x - 3) ≥ -3(3x) + 5x
Process
1.- Expand
8x - 6 ≥ - 9x + 5x
2.- Simplify
8x - 6 ≥ - 4x
3.- Add 6 units in both sides
8x - 6 + 6 ≥ -4x + 6
4.- Simplify
8x ≥ -4x + 6
5.- Add 4x in both sides
8x + 4x ≥ -4x + 6 + 4x
6.- Simplify
12x ≥ 6
7.- Divide by 12 both sides
12x/12 ≥ 6/12
8.- Simplify
x ≥ 1/2 or 0.5
It's pretty much simple. Since we can factor a polynomial by its zeros, lets write one of degree nine :
X(X-1)(X-2)(X-3)(X-4)(X-5)(X+1)(X+2)(X+3)= X^9-9X^8+6X^7+126X^6-231X^5-441X^4+944X^3+324X^2-720X
This polynomial is of degree 9 and has exactly 5 strictly positive zeros : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
And it has 3 negative zeros : - 1, -1, - 3
And it has 0 as a zero too.
There is also this one :
(X-1)(X-2)(X-3)(X-4)(X²+1)(X+1)(X+2)(X+3) = X^9-4X^8-13X^7+52X^6+35X^5-140X^4+13X^3-52X^2-36X+144
It has 4 positive zeros : 1, 2, 3, 4.
It has complex zeros : i and - i
3 negative zeros : - 1, - 2 , - 3
Good Luck
