Answer:


(-2)/(5) > x

or x <
(-2)/(5)

Explanation:


(2)/(5) - 4x > 2(1 - x) Distribute the 2


(2)/(5) - 4x > 2 - 2x Add 4x to both sides


(2)/(5) - 4x+ 4x > 2 - 2x + 4x Combine like terms


(2)/(5) > 2 + 2x Subtract 2 from both sides


(2)/(5) - 2 > 2 - 2 + 2x Combine like terms


(2)/(5) -
(10)/(5) > 2x


(-8)/(10) > 2x Divide both sides by 2


(-8)/(10)÷ 2 > 2x ÷2


(-8)/(10) ÷
(20)/(10) =
((-8)/(20) )/((10)/(10) ) =
((-8)/(20) )/(1) =
(-8)/(20) =
(-2)/(5)


(-2)/(5) > x
