Answer:

using x< 4 4/5, x is less than or equal to 4 but not including rational numbers.

Explanation:

5x-9<15

+9 +9

5x<24

÷5 ÷5

x<24/5 = x< 4 4/5

Whole numbers are numbers that don't have any fractional values so we have to drop to the next whole number (4) meaning that x is less than or equal to 4 but not including rational numbers because rational numbers have a fractional value.

(hopefully i did this right for you because the question doesn't really explain on what it wants without context)
