To solve the inequality 5x/9 < 8, we can start by multiplying both sides of the inequality by 9 to eliminate the fraction:
5x/9 < 8
(9)(5x/9) < (8)(9)
5x < 72
Now, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 5 to isolate x:
5x/5 < 72/5
x < 14.4
The solution to the inequality 5x/9 < 8 is x < 14.4.
Solve 5x/9 <8
