Answer:

SOLUTION SET ={a/a≥20}

Step-by-step explanation:


(2a)/(5)-2\geq(a)/(4)+1


adding 2 on both sides


(2a)/(5)-2+2\geq (a)/(4)+1+2


now subtracting (a)/(4) on both sides


(2a)/(5)-(a)/(4)\geq 3


takig LCM as 20\\(8a)/(20)-(5a)/(20)\geq 3


(3a)/(20)\geq 3


by cross-multiplication

3a≥3×20

3a≥60

dividing 3 on both sides

3a/3≥60/3

a≥20

SOLUTION SET ={a/a≥20} is the answer

i hope this will help you :)
