Question

Solve for x.

3 1/2 ≥ 1.4x

A. x ≥ 2 1/2

B. x ≤ 2 1/2

C. x ≥ 4 9/10

D. x ≤ 4 9/10

Answer 1

Answer:
x ≥ 4 9/10 C:)

Explanation:

Answer 2

To solve for x, we need to get x by itself on one side of the equation. To do this, we can start by subtracting 1.4x from both sides of the equation. This gives us:

3 1/2 - 1.4x ≥ 0

Next, we can simplify the left side of the equation to get:

7/2 - 7/5x ≥ 0

Now we can divide both sides of the equation by -7/5 to get:

-5/2x ≤ -7/2

Finally, we can multiply both sides of the equation by -2/5 to get:

x ≥ 4 9/10

Therefore, the solution is x ≥ 4 9/10, which corresponds to answer choice C.
