\"+%28-2%2F5%29%2Ax+-9+%3C+9%2F10+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Add \"9\" to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28-2%2F5%29%2Ax+%3C+9%2F10+%2B+9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by \"+10+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+-4x+%3C+9+%2B+90+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+-4x+%3C+99+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by \"+-4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "This means you also have to reverse the
\n" ); document.write( "inequality sign
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%3E+-99%2F4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Note that \"+-99%2F4+=+-24.75+\"
\n" ); document.write( "To check my result, I'll make \"x\"
\n" ); document.write( "a little larger than \"+-24.75+\"
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+-24.74+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28-2%2F5%29%2Ax+-9+%3C+9%2F10+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28-.4%29%2A%28-24.74%29+-9+%3C+.9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+9.896+-+9+%3C+.9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.896+%3C+.9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "
