Answer:

x ≥ [tex]\frac{21}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{5}{18}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{x-2}{9}[/tex] ≤ [tex]\frac{x-4}{6}[/tex]

Multiply through by 18 ( the LCM of 18, 9 and 6 ) to clear the fractions

5 - 2(x - 2) ≤ 3(x - 4) ← distribute parenthesis and simplify

5 - 2x + 4 ≤ 3x - 12

9 - 2x ≤ 3x - 12 ( add 2x to both sides )

9 ≤ 5x - 12 ( add 12 to both sides )

21 ≤ 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )

[tex]\frac{21}{5}[/tex] ≤ x , that is

x ≥ [tex]\frac{21}{5}[/tex]
