Answer:

Option C (x < -5/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

((2 - 5x)/(-3)) + 4 < -x.

Take LCM on LHS:

(2 - 5x - 12)/(-3) < -x.

Multiplying -3 on both sides (this will also flip the inequality):

-5x - 10 > 3x.

Adding 10 on both sides and subtracting -3x on both sides:

-8x > 10.

Dividing -8 on both sides (this will also flip the inequality):

x < -5/4.

Therefore, Option C is the correct answer!!!
