  1. Is 5/3(x+1)= (5/3) (x+1) or 5/[3(x+1)]?

    in second case it solved as follows

    5/3 < (x+1)^2

    so x+1 < - 5/3 or 5/3 < x+1.

    In the first case 5/3 > 1 and so (5/3)(x+1) > (x+1) when x+1 is +ve.

    (5/3)(x+1) < (x+1) if x+1 < 0.

    Where is trigonometry?


  2. Solve 5/3(x+1) is less than or equal to x+1

    whadupdd.. here it is.

    5/ [3(x + 1)] ≤ (x + 1)

    5 ≤ (3x + 3)(x + 1)

    5 ≤ (3x² + 3x + 3x + 3)

    5 ≤ 3x² + 6x + 3)

    0 ≤ 3x² + 6x - 2

    Quadratic

    a=3  b=6  c=(-2)

    x=[-b ±√b² -4ac]/2a

    =[-6 ±√36 -4(3)(-2)]/2(3)

    =[-6 ±√60]/6

    x= [-6 ± 7.75]/6

    x+ =[-6 + 7.75]/6

    x+ = 0.29

    x-  =[-6 - 7.75]/6

    x- = - 2.29

    where

    =============================

    Ans:: x ≥ 0.29   &   x ≥ - 2.29

    =============================

    hope this helps

  3. x >= rt(5/3) -1

  4. 5/3 (x + 1) ≤ x + 1

    5/3x + 5/3 ≤ x + 1 Distribute

    5/3x -x + 5/3 ≤ x - x + 1 Subtract x from both sides

    2/3x + 5/3 ≤ 1 Subtract 5/3 from both sides

    2/3x + 5/3 - 5/3 ≤ 1 - 5/3

    2/3x ≤ -2/3 Divide both sides by 2/3

    x ≤ -1

    Not trigonmetry, algebra.
