D) no solutions
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
Let $ 2(2x+3)-10<6(x-2)~\ldots (1) $
$ \frac{2x-3}{4}+6\ge \frac{2+4x}{3}~\ldots (2) $
$ (1)\Rightarrow 4x+6-10-6x+12<0 $
$ \Rightarrow -2x+8<0 $
$ \Rightarrow -2x<-8\Rightarrow x>4i.e.,x\in (4,\infty ) $
$ (2)\Rightarrow \frac{2x-3+24}{4}\ge \frac{2+4x}{3} $
$ \Rightarrow 6x+63\ge 8+16x $
$ \Rightarrow 6x-16\ge 8-63 $
$ \Rightarrow -10x\ge -55 $
$ \Rightarrow x\le \frac{55}{10}i.e.,x\in ( -\infty ,\frac{55}{10} ] $
Solution set is given by $ ( -\infty ,\frac{55}{10} ]\cap (4,\infty )=( 4,\frac{55}{10} ] $ Thus, the system has infinitely solution.
