−25x−9<9/10
help me pleeeeeez!
−25x−9<0.9 add 9 both sides
-25 x < 9.9 divide both sides by -25 and reverse arrow
x > -9.9/25
To solve the inequality −25x − 9 < 9/10, we need to isolate the variable x. Here are the steps to solve it:
Step 1: Simplify the inequality by subtracting 9/10 from both sides:
−25x − 9 < 9/10
−25x < (9/10) + 9/10
−25x < 18/10
Step 2: Simplify the right side of the inequality:
−25x < 18/10
−25x < 9/5
Step 3: Next, we need to isolate the variable x. Divide both sides of the inequality by -25, but since dividing by a negative number flips the inequality, we also need to reverse the inequality sign:
x > (9/5)/-25
x > -9/125
Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x > -9/125.
