Answer:


(81)/(10)-4 \geq 2(2)

true

Explanation:

The inequality is equal to


8(1)/(10)-4 \geq 2(2)

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction


8(1)/(10)=8+(1)/(10)=(8*10+1)/(10)=(81)/(10)

substitute in the original expression


(81)/(10)-4 \geq 2(2)


(81)/(10)-4 \geq 4

Multiply by 10 both sides to remove the fraction


81-40 \geq 40


41 \geq 40 ----> is true
