    x > - 99/4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I must assume that you meant (-2/5) x - 9<9/10.

    This inequality has 3 terms. The LCD is 10. Multiply each term by 10 and reduce the result:

    10 (-2/5) x - 10 (9) < 10 (9/10), or:

    -4x - 90 < 9

    Adding 90 to both sides results in:

    -4x < 99

    Here we must divide by a negative number (that is, by - 4). This requires reversing the direction of the inequality sign:

    x > - 99/4 is the final solution.
