<h3>
Answer: x > 2</h3>
Work Shown:
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < - 18
x > -18/(-9)
x > 2
The inequality sign flips when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Here's another approach you could take.
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < -18
0 < -18+9x
18 < 9x
9x > 18
x > 18/9
x > 2
It's a slightly longer pathway, but it avoids a sign flip when you divide both sides by the positive number 9.
The sign flip happens two steps earlier when going from 18 < 9x to 9x > 18. In other words, A < B is the same as B > A.

Answer:
.90(85.00) would give the same result
Step-by-step explanation:
Rhonda is using the total cost of the item ($85.00) multiplied by the discount (10%) to find the total discount: 85 x 0.10 = 8.50. Once Rhonda subtracts the discount ($8.50) from the total: $85 - $8.50 = $76.50. The other way to look at the problem, is that Rhonda is only paying for 90% of the total cost of the items, instead of 100% since she is receiving the 10% discount. So, she would get the same final total by multiplying the cost of the items ($85.00) by 90%, or 0.90.
