5.8x-5x<2000
Subtract 5x from both sides.
0.8x<2000
Combine 5.8x and -5x to get 0.8x.
x<\frac{2000}{0.8}
Divide both sides by 0.8. Since 0.8 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
x<\frac{20000}{8}
Expand \frac{2000}{0.8} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x<2500
Divide 20000 by 8 to get 2500.
