Can we assume x ≥ 5?

#

Or I think we have to

#

You can start with dividing by x! on both sides

#

whats next?

What do you think is next?

near barn
#

move and try to co-name

near barn
fresh kayak
#

Co-name ?

serene palm
#

i dont understand your sentence

near barn
#

sorry, translator mistake

#

to make the denominators the same

fresh kayak
#

Do it then

#

Also, you could notice that these are two binomial coefficients

serene palm
#

I would multiply both sides by 5!(x-5)!

#

Notice this hint: ||(x-4)! = (x-4)(x-5)!||

#

yes

#

Now since x > 4 what can you do next?

near barn
serene palm
#

Because (x-5)! is defined x ≥ 5 or x > 4 if x is a natural number

#

factorial x! is defined for x ≥ 0

#

so (x-5)! is defined for x - 5 ≥ 0

#

which is x ≥ 5

near barn
#

but answer is (4;9), x∈N

#

You are confusing the domain with the solutions of 1<5/(x-4)

#

Before you start solving an inequality or even equation you define which x are allowed

#

If you can't follow, then still solve the inequality and you will see

#

ok

#

yes after decades

near barn
#

xxd

#

x<

#

X<9

serene palm
#

yea

#

so x < 9

#

but we also restricted x to be x ≥ 5

#

so the solution would be [5,9) or like yours (4,9)

#

since x is natural
