Answer:x<-0.5

Explanation:

10-19x-1x<-1

1st step=subtract 1x from 19x which will give you 18x

equation after:10-18x<-1

2nd step:subtract 10 from each side to isolate variable

equation after:-18x=9

3rd step:divide by side by -18 to isolate the variable

equation after:x<-0.5

Answer:

x>-9/20 or x > -0.45

Explanation:

simplify both sides of the inequality:

-20x-10<-1

add 10 to both sides of the inequality:

-20x<9

divide both sides of the inequality by -20:

x>-9/20

divide to discover the decimal value:

-9/20= -0.45

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!:)
