To solve the inequality \(5(2k - 3) \geq -3(4 - 3k)\), we will first expand both sides and then solve for \(k\).
-
Expand both sides of the inequality: \[ 5(2k - 3) = 10k - 15 \] \[ -3(4 - 3k) = -12 + 9k \]
Now we rewrite the inequality: \[ 10k - 15 \geq -12 + 9k \]
-
Rearrange the inequality to isolate \(k\): Subtract \(9k\) from both sides: \[ 10k - 9k - 15 \geq -12 \] This simplifies to: \[ k - 15 \geq -12 \]
-
Add 15 to both sides: \[ k \geq -12 + 15 \] This simplifies to: \[ k \geq 3 \]
Thus, the solution to the inequality is: \[ \boxed{k \geq 3} \]
