Answer: x = 2.

Explanation:

By an online search, i found that the question is:

"Given that x satisfies the inequality 20*x > 33, find the smallest value of x if x is a prime number."

To find the smallest value of x we need to input different possible values of x (where we have the condition that x must be a prime number) and see which one is the first one that makes the inequality true.

The prime numbers are:

2, 3, 5, ....

Let's start with the smaller one, x = 2

So we input it in the inequality and get:

20*2 > 33

40 > 33

this is true.

Then we can have x = 2, which is the smaller prime number that satisfies the inequality.
