Answer 1

To solve the inequality $1.7x\ge 5.95$, follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides by 1.7 to isolate $x$:

$$x\ge \frac{5.95}{1.7}$$

2. Calculate $\frac{5.95}{1.7}$:

$$\frac{5.95}{1.7}\approx 3.5$$

So the solution to the inequality is:

$$x\ge 3.5$$

Therefore, the correct response is:

x≥3.5
