10x + 16 ≥ 6x + 20
Subtract both sides by 16
10x ≥ 6x + 4
Subtract both sides by 6x
4x ≥ 4
Divide both sides by 4
x ≥ 1
Have an awesome day! :)

Answer:

The solution of given inequality is x ≥1.

Explanation:

The given inequality is


10x+16\geq 6x+20

We need to separate the variable terms to solve the above inequality.

Subtract 6x and 16 from both sides to separate the variables on left side.


10x+16-6x-16\geq 6x+20-6x-16

On combining like terms we get


(10x-6x)+(16-16)\geq (6x-6x)+(20-16)


4x\geq 4

Divide both sides by 4.


x\geq (4)/(4)


x\geq 1

Therefore the solution of given inequality is x ≥1.
