Understanding Inequalities

The video tutorial explains how to construct an inequality starting with a variable. It breaks down the process into steps: dividing the variable by 5, subtracting 4 from the result, multiplying the difference by -6, and finally comparing the product to 2. Each step is detailed to help understand the transformation of the variable into the inequality expression.

What is the initial inequality given in the problem?

• Negative six times x divided by five minus four is greater than or equal to two

• Negative six times x divided by five plus four is less than or equal to two

• Negative six times x plus five minus four is less than or equal to two

• Negative six times x divided by five minus four is less than or equal to two
