Question
Solve the inequality
Solve the inequality by testing the values in the interval
Solve the inequality by separating into cases
x≤34
Alternative Form
x∈(−∞,34]
Evaluate
x2(4−3x)≥0
Rewrite the expression
x2(4−3x)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x2=04−3x=0
The only way a power can be 0 is when the base equals 0
x=04−3x=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
4−3x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−3x=0−4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−3x=−4
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
3x=4
Divide both sides
33x=34
Divide the numbers
x=34
x=0x=34
Determine the test intervals using the critical values
x<00<x<34x>34
Choose a value form each interval
x1=−1x2=1x3=3
To determine if x<0 is the solution to the inequality,test if the chosen value x=−1 satisfies the initial inequality

Check the inequality
false
x<0 is the solution0<x<34 is the solutionx>34 is not a solution
The original inequality is a nonstrict inequality,so include the critical value in the solution
x≤0 is the solution0≤x≤34 is the solution
Solution
