Answer 1

The value of x are can be any real number between 0.125 and 0.18.

Explanation:

Consider the given inequality

`0.125<x<(9)/(50)`

We need to find the value of x for the above inequality.

First simplify the right side of the inequality.

`(9)/(50)=0.18`

So the given inequality can be rewritten as

`0.125<x<0.18`

The sign of inequality is "<" . It means the values 0.125 and 0.18 are not included in the solution set.

Therefore, the value of x are can be any real number between 0.125 and 0.18.
