OpenStudy (anonymous):

@dnutt :Got it ?:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Got all ????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I say you again : -x-4x=-5x and we have : -5x<0 So divided on -5 and have : x<0 Got it ?:)

OpenStudy (phi):

-x - 4x < 0 you can simplify -x - 4 x to -5x -5x < 0 notice dividing by a negative number changes the relation operator However, we can add +5x to both sides to get -5x + 5x < 5x 0 < 5x now we can divide both sides by 5 to get 0/5 < 5x/5 which simplifies to 0 < x

0<x
