The problem asks us to solve for $x$ in two different questions. In the first question, we have an equation $\frac{x}{2} + \frac{x}{3} = 5$. In the second question, we have an inequality $4 - x \le 13$. We are given that $x$ must be an integer.

1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to solve for xx in two different questions. In the first question, we have an equation x2+x3=5\frac{x}{2} + \frac{x}{3} = 5. In the second question, we have an inequality 4x134 - x \le 13. We are given that xx must be an integer.

2. Solution Steps

(i) To solve the equation x2+x3=5\frac{x}{2} + \frac{x}{3} = 5, we first find a common denominator for the fractions, which is

6. Then we rewrite the equation as:

3x6+2x6=5\frac{3x}{6} + \frac{2x}{6} = 5
Combining the terms on the left side, we have:
5x6=5\frac{5x}{6} = 5
Multiply both sides by 6:
5x=305x = 30
Divide both sides by 5:
x=6x = 6
Since x=6x=6 is an integer, it satisfies the condition xZx \in Z.
(ii) To solve the inequality 4x134 - x \le 13, we subtract 4 from both sides:
x9-x \le 9
Multiply both sides by -

1. Remember to flip the inequality sign when multiplying by a negative number:

x9x \ge -9
Since xZx \in Z, xx must be an integer greater than or equal to -
9.

3. Final Answer

(i) x=6x = 6
(ii) x9x \ge -9
