I guess the working will depend upon how you're supposed to deal with fractions/decimals, but 1 = 10/10, so 4 = 40/10.

0.0987 rounded to the closest 1/10 or 0.1 is simply 0.1, so the final answer is 4.1 or 41/10.

There are many ways of working to this answer though.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x > 30+\frac{5}{4x} \\2x-\frac{5}{4x} > 30\\\frac{8x^2-5}{4x} > 30\\case~1\\if~x > 0\\8x^2-5 > 120x\\8x^2-120x > 5\\x^2-15x > \frac{5}{8} \\adding~(-\frac{15}{2} )^2~to~both~sides\\(x-\frac{15}{2} )^2 > \frac{5}{8}+\frac{225}{4} \\(x-\frac{15}{2} )^2 > \frac{455}{8} \\x-\frac{15}{2} < -\sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } \\x < \frac{15}{2}-\sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } \\or~x < 0\\rejected~as~x > 0$

$x-\frac{15}{2} > \sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } \\x > \frac{15}{2} +\sqrt{\frac{455}{8} }$

case~2

$if~x < 0\\8x^2-5 < 120x\\8x^2-120x < 5\\x^2-15x < \frac{5}{8} \\adding~(-\frac{15}{2} )^2\\(x-\frac{15}{2} )^2 < \frac{5}{8} +(-\frac{15}{2} )^2\\|x-\frac{15}{2} | < \frac{5+450}{8} \\-\sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } < x-\frac{15}{2} < \sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } \\\frac{15}{2} -\sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } < x < \frac{15}{2} +\sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } \\but~x < 0\\7.5-\sqrt{\frac{455}{8} } < x < 0$
