One dumb method is to expand everything out and factor it again absorbing that 5 on right hand side

OpenStudy (ybarrap):

And that gives $$ (x-1) (x+1) (x+2) (x+4)-5 $$ Then find for what values of x is this greater or equal to 0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Pretty sure you mean $$ (x-1) (x+1) (x+2) (x+4)\ge 0 $$ Then find for what values of x is this greater or equal to 0
