5x < 8
To solve the inequality, divide both sides of the inequality by 5:
(5x)/5 < 8/5
x < 1.6
Now, let's write the decimal as a mixed number. 1.6 is equivalent to 1 3/5.
Therefore, the solution written as a mixed number is:
x < 1 3/5
Solve 5x9<8 . Write the improper fraction in your answer as a mixed number. Make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first.

I apologize for the mistake.
To solve the inequality, we start by dividing both sides by 5:
5x/9 < 8/9
x < 8/9
To write the improper fraction as a mixed number, we divide the numerator (8) by the denominator (9):
8 ÷ 9 = 0 remainder 8
The quotient is 0 and the remainder is 8. Therefore, the mixed number is 0 8/9.
Therefore, the solution is:
x < 0 8/9
To solve the inequality, we start by dividing both sides by 5:
5x/9 < 8/9
x < 8/9
To write the improper fraction as a mixed number, we divide the numerator (8) by the denominator (9):
8 ÷ 9 = 0 remainder 8
The quotient is 0 and the remainder is 8. Therefore, the mixed number is 0 8/9.
Therefore, the solution is:
x < 0 8/9

Apologies again for the mistake.
To solve the inequality 5x < 8, we need to isolate x.
We can do this by dividing both sides of the inequality by 5:
(5x)/5 < 8/5
Simplifying, we have:
x < 8/5
To write the improper fraction as a mixed number, we divide the numerator (8) by the denominator (5):
8 ÷ 5 = 1 remainder 3
The quotient is 1 and the remainder is 3. Therefore, the mixed number is 1 3/5.
Therefore, the solution is:
x < 1 3/5
