1/3 (2x-5)+5≤2/5 (x-2)
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply everything by 15 to clear fractions
\n" ); document.write( "5(2x-5)+75<= 6(x-2)
\n" ); document.write( "10x-25+75<=6x-12, after distributing.
\n" ); document.write( "4x<=-62, after collecting terms and moving them.
\n" ); document.write( "x<=-15.5, dividing by 4.
\n" ); document.write( "Check by using a number in and out of the range.
\n" ); document.write( "0 should not work, and (-5/3)+5 is not less than -4/5
\n" ); document.write( "-12 should not work, and (1/3)(-29)+5 is -4 2/3 and that is not less than (2/5)(-14) or -28/5 or -5 3/5
\n" ); document.write( "-16 should work, and (1/3)(-37)+5 is -7 1/3 and that is less than (2/5)(-18) which is -36/5 or -7 1/5
\n" ); document.write( "x<= -15.5, and it is the point and everything to the left of it on the number line.
