Answer: [tex]2n-1\geq5[/tex]


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You must read carefully the information given in the problem: "One less than twice a number" indicates that you must write a number [tex]n[/tex] multiplied by 2 and subtract 1 from this term, as following:

[tex]2n-1[/tex]

2. "is not less than five" indicates that the result must be equal or greater than 5. Then, you obtain the following expression:

[tex]2n-1\geq5[/tex]
