Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( 1.7x \geq 5.95 \), follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides by 1.7: \[ x \geq \frac{5.95}{1.7} \]

2. Calculate \( \frac{5.95}{1.7} \): \[ \frac{5.95}{1.7} \approx 3.5 \]

So, the solution to the inequality is: \[ x \geq 3.5 \]

Thus, the correct response is: x ≥ 3.5 x is greater than or equal to 3.5
