Answer 1

Answer:

x < -1 is the desired inequality answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given system of equation is:

4x - 5 + x < -10

Now,simplifying for the value of x,we get

4x - 5 + x < -10   ⇒  5x  - 5  < -10

=  5x < - 10 + 5

or, 5x < -5

or, x < -5/5 = -1

Hence, x < -1 is the desired inequality answer.
