The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \( (\log x)\left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) > \left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rearranging the Inequality We start by moving all terms to one side of the inequality: \[ (\log x)\left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) - \left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) > 0 \] This can be factored as: \[ \left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right)(\log x - 1) > 0 \] ### Step 2: Identifying Critical Points Next, we identify the critical points where each factor is zero: 1. \( \frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x} = 0 \) gives \( x = \frac{2}{5} \). 2. \( \log x - 1 = 0 \) gives \( x = 10 \). ### Step 3: Testing Intervals We will test the intervals determined by the critical points \( x = \frac{2}{5} \) and \( x = 10 \): - **Interval 1**: \( (-\infty, \frac{2}{5}) \) - **Interval 2**: \( \left(\frac{2}{5}, 10\right) \) - **Interval 3**: \( (10, \infty) \) ### Step 4: Analyzing Each Interval 1. **For \( x < \frac{2}{5} \)**: - \( \frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x} > 0 \) (since \( x \) is negative) - \( \log x - 1 < 0 \) (since \( x < 1 \)) - Product: Negative 2. **For \( \frac{2}{5} < x < 10 \)**: - \( \frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x} > 0 \) - \( \log x - 1 < 0 \) (since \( x < 10 \)) - Product: Negative 3. **For \( x > 10 \)**: - \( \frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x} > 0 \) - \( \log x - 1 > 0 \) - Product: Positive ### Step 5: Conclusion The inequality \( \left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right)(\log x - 1) > 0 \) holds true when \( x > 10 \). ### Step 6: Finding the Non-Solution Now we check the options provided to find which is not a solution: - **Option 1**: \( x > 10 \) (solution) - **Option 2**: \( 0 < x < \frac{2}{5} \) (not a solution) - **Option 3**: \( 1 < x < 2 \) (not a solution) - **Option 4**: \( \frac{2}{5} < x < 10 \) (not a solution) The option that is not a solution is any of those that fall within the intervals \( (0, \frac{2}{5}) \) and \( (2/5, 10) \). ### Final Answer The answer is any option that suggests \( x \) is in the intervals \( (0, \frac{2}{5}) \) or \( (2/5, 10) \).

To solve the inequality \( (\log x)\left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) > \left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rearranging the Inequality We start by moving all terms to one side of the inequality: \[ (\log x)\left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) - \left(\frac{5}{2} - \frac{1}{x}\right) > 0 \] This can be factored as: ...
