4x%2B49%3C9-x Start with the given inequality.


4x%3C9-x-49 Subtract 49 from both sides.


4x%2Bx%3C9-49 Add x to both sides.


5x%3C9-49 Combine like terms on the left side.


5x%3C-40 Combine like terms on the right side.


x%3C%28-40%29%2F%285%29 Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x.


x%3C-8 Reduce.
