Step-by-Step:

___________

1. We are given the following:


4 < -9.9-(-10x+1)

This being said, the first thing we need to do is switch sides, writing it as follows:


-9.9-(-10x+1) > 4

___________

2. Next, we need to add 9.9 to both sides of the equation.


-9.9-(-10x+1)+9.9 > 4+9.9

___________

3. Then, we simplify.


-(-10x+1) > 13.9

____________

4. Now, we add 1 to both sides of the equation.


10x-1+1 > 13.9+1

____________

5. We simplify again.


10x > 14.9

____________

6. Next, we divide both sides by 10.


(10x)/(10) > (14.9)/(10)

____________

7. Finally, simplify one more time.


x > 1.49

Hence, out solution is
x > 1.49

Hope this helps!
