Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

2
x +5x−6
x−3
≥0
Let's find the critical points of the inequality.

2
x +5x−6
x−3
=0
2
x +5x−6=0 (Multiply both sides by x-3)

x−1=0 or x+6=0 (Set factors equal to 0)


x=1 or x=−6

Check possible critical points.


x=1 (Works in original equation)
x=−6 (Works in original equation)

Critical points:
x=1 or x=−6 (Makes both sides equal)
x=3 (Makes left denominator equal to 0)
Check intervals in between critical points. (Test values in the intervals to
see if they work.)
x≤−6 (Doesn't work in original inequality)
−6≤x≤1 (Works in original inequality)
1≤x<3 (Doesn't work in original inequality)
x>3 (Works in original inequality)

Answer:
−6≤x≤1 or x>3
