solve this :∣x-1∣+∣x-2∣+∣x-5∣>=6

Dear Student,

x-1+x-2+x-56Here,the three critical points where the equation is to be solve are: x=1,2,5Case 1:x<1-(x-1)-(x-2)-(x-5)6-x+1-x+2-x+56-3x+86-3x+20x23therefore, x23,Case 2:1x<2(x-1)-(x-2)-(x-5)6x-1-x+2-x+56-x+66-x0x0therefore, x-,0Case 3:2x<5(x-1)+(x-2)-(x-5)6x-1+x-2-x+56x+26x4therefore, x4,Case 4:x5(x-1)+(x-2)+(x-5)6x-1+x-2+x-563x-86x143therefore, x143,
