Option A, B, and D have the point x=0 in common.

At x=0, we have LHS=2, RHS=5/3, so the given inequality is not valid.
So, option A,B, and D are eliminated.

Between C & E, E possesses negative value of x.
At x=-2, LHS=12 and RHS=17/3; so the given inequality is not valid. Option E is eliminated.

Ans. (C)

P.S:- By solving the inequality, we have $$x\geq{\frac{1}{9}}$$. Straightaway option (C).

OA:C
$$2 - 5x \leq -\frac{(6x - 5)}{3}$$

Multilpying both sides by -1, we get
$$5x-2≥ \frac{{6x-5}}{3}$$

Multiplying both sides by 3 , we get
$$15x-6≥6x-5$$

Adding -6x+6 on both sides,
$$9x≥1$$

Dividing by 9 on both sides
$$x≥\frac{1}{9}$$

Only C satisifies this condition

Given

$$2 - 5x \leq -\frac{(6x - 5)}{3}$$

6 - 15x <= - 6x -5

15 x -6 >= 6x -5

9x >= 1

x >= 1/9.

Only option C fits the condition.

The best answer is C.
