Answer:

-5/6 < x < 0

Explanation:

x(6x+5)

these are the factors of a quadratic that opens up. The value will be less than zero between the roots.

the roots are:

x = 0

6x + 5 = 0

6x = -5

x = -5/6

x = {-5/6, 0}

Therefor

x(6x + 5) < 0

-5/6 < x < 0

----------------------------

To see this visually look at the graph

See where the parabola is below the x-axis
