Assume z different from 5. Multiply both sides of inequality by (z-5)




The roots of this quadratic equation are {0,11/2 }. As we know in the closed interval [0,11/2] the equation has the opposite sign of the coefficient
beside
.
Since this coefficient is positive the solution of our inequality is the closed interval: [0,11/2].
