To solve the inequality (9x - x^2 \leq 20), you first rearrange it into standard quadratic form by moving all terms to one side: (x^2 - 9x + 20 \geq 0). Then, factor the quadratic expression: ((x - 5)(x - 4) \geq 0). Now, you can find the critical points by setting each factor equal to zero and solving for x: (x - 5 = 0) or (x - 4 = 0), which gives (x = 5) or (x = 4). Next, plot these critical points on a number line. Since the inequality is greater than or equal to zero, you want to determine where the quadratic expression is positive or zero. This occurs when (x) is less than or equal to 4, or when (x) is greater than or equal to 5. Therefore, the solution to the inequality is (x \leq 4) or (x \geq 5).
