Need help with number 3 inequalities with variables on both sides

Volgvan

Answer:

x ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the inequality:

$\displaystyle{2x-3 \leq \dfrac{x}{2}}$

First, get rid of the denominator by multiplying both sides by 2:

$\displaystyle{2x\cdot 2-3\cdot 2 \leq \dfrac{x}{2}\cdot 2}\\\\\displaystyle{4x-6 \leq x}$

Add both sides by 6 then subtract both sides by x:

$\displaystyle{4x-6+6 \leq x+6}\\\\\displaystyle{4x \leq x+6}\\\\\displaystyle{4x-x \leq x+6-x}\\\\\displaystyle{4x-x \leq 6}\\\\\displaystyle{3x \leq 6}$

Then divide both sides by 3:

$\displaystyle{\dfrac{3x}{3} \leq \dfrac{6}{3}}\\\\\displaystyle{x \leq 2}$

Therefore, the answer is x ≤ 2
