Ans: Let us rewrite the given inequality, we get

$\frac{\text{3}\left( \text{x-2} \right)}{\text{5}}\leq\frac{\text{5}\left( \text{2-x} \right)}{\text{3}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{9}\left( \text{x-2} \right)\leq\text{25}\left( \text{2-x} \right)$ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{9x-18}\leq\text{50-25x} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{9x+25x-18}\leq\text{50-25x+25x} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{34x-18}\leq\text{50} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{34x-18+18}\leq\text{50+18} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{34x}\leq\text{68} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{x}\leq\frac{\text{68}}{\text{34}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{x}\leq\text{2} $

Therefore, we can say that the numbers less than or equal to $2$ will be in the solution set for satisfying the given condition.

Therefore, we can say that the solution set for the given inequality is $\left( -\infty ,2 \right]$.


Q12Written answer

Worked solution

Ans: Let us rewrite the given inequality, we get

$\frac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}\left( \frac{\text{3x}}{\text{5}}\text{+4} \right)\geq\frac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\left( \text{x-6} \right) $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{3}\left( \frac{\text{3x}}{\text{5}}\text{+4} \right)\geq\text{2}\left( \text{x-6} \right) $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\text{9}}{\text{5}}\text{x+12}\geq\text{2x-12} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\text{9}}{\text{5}}\text{x+12-12}\geq\text{2x-12-12} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\text{9}}{\text{5}}\text{x}\geq\text{2x-24} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{9x}\geq\text{10x-120} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{9x-10x}\geq\text{10x-10x-120} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-x}\geq\text{-120} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{x}\leq\text{120} $

Therefore, we can say that the numbers less than or equal to $120$ will be in the solution set for satisfying the given condition.

Therefore, we can say that the solution set for the given inequality is $\left( -\infty ,120 \right]$.

Worked solution

Ans: Let us rewrite the given inequality, we get

$\text{2}\left( \text{2x+3} \right)\text{-10}<\text{6}\left( \text{x-2} \right) $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{4x+6-10}<\text{6x-12} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{4x-4}<\text{6x-12} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{4x-4+4}<\text{6x-12+4} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{4x}<\text{6x-8} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{4x-6x}<\text{6x-6x-8} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-2x}<\text{-8} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{x}>\text{4}$

Therefore, we can say that the numbers greater than $4$ will be in the solution set for satisfying the given condition.

Therefore, we can say that the solution set for the given inequality is $\left( 4,\infty\right)$.

Worked solution

Ans: Let us rewrite the given inequality, we get

$\text{37-}\left( \text{3x+5} \right)\geq\text{9x-8}\left( \text{x-3} \right) $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{37-3x-5}\geq\text{9x-8x+24} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-3x+32}\geq\text{x+24} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-3x-x+32}\geq\text{x-x+24} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-4x+32}\geq\text{24} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-4x+32-32}\geq\text{24-32} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-4x\geq-8} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{x\leq2}$

Therefore, we can say that the numbers less than or equal to $2$ will be in the solution set for satisfying the given condition.

Therefore, we can say that the solution set for the given inequality is $\left( -\infty ,2 \right]$.


Q15Written answer

Solve the given inequality for real $\mathrm{x:}\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{4}}<\frac{\left( \mathrm{5x-2} \right)}{\mathrm{3}}\mathrm{-}\frac{\left( \mathrm{7x-3} \right)}{\mathrm{5}}$

Ans: Let us rewrite the given inequality, we get

$\frac{\text{x}}{\text{4}}<\frac{\left( \text{5x-2} \right)}{\text{3}}\text{-}\frac{\left( \text{7x-3} \right)}{\text{5}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\text{x}}{\text{4}}<\frac{\text{5}\left( \text{5x-2} \right)\text{-3}\left( \text{7x-3} \right)}{\text{15}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\text{x}}{\text{4}}<\frac{\text{25x-10-21x+9}}{\text{15}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\text{x}}{\text{4}}<\frac{\text{4x-1}}{\text{15}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{15x}<\text{4}\left( \text{4x-1} \right) $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{15x-16x}<\text{16x-16x-4} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-x}<\text{-4} $ 

$\text{x}>\text{4}$

Therefore, we can say that the numbers greater $4$ will be in the solution set for satisfying the given condition.

Therefore, we can say that the solution set for the given inequality is $\left( 4,\infty\right)$.

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\left( \text{2x-1} \right)}{\text{3}}\geq\frac{\text{5}\left( \text{3x-2} \right)\text{-4}\left( \text{2-x} \right)}{\text{20}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\left( \text{2x-1} \right)}{\text{3}}\text{=}\frac{\text{15x-10-8+4x}}{\text{20}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \frac{\left( \text{2x-1} \right)}{\text{3}}\geq\frac{\text{19x-18}}{\text{20}} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{20}\left( \text{2x-1} \right)\geq\text{3}\left( \text{19x-18} \right) $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{40x-20}\geq\text{57x-54} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{-20+54}\geq\text{57x-40x} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{34}\geq\text{17x} $ 

$ \Rightarrow \text{2}\geq\text{x}$

Therefore, we can say that the numbers less than or equal to $4$ will be in the solution set for satisfying the given condition.

Therefore, we can say that the solution set for the given inequality is $\left( -\infty ,2 \right]$.
