Answer:

x>24.75

Explanation:

The given equation is :


(-2)/(5)x-9<(9)/(10)

Add 9 to both sides of the inequality.


(-2)/(5)x-9+9<(9)/(10)+9\\\\(-2x)/(5)<9.9

Multiply 5 to both sides of the inequality.


(-2x)/(5)* 5<9.9* 5\\\\-2x<49.5

Dividing both sides by(-2)


x<-24.75

or


x>24.75

Hence, the value of x is greater than 24.75.
