The correct answer is A. Divide both sides of the inequality by 6 to simplify: 1-5/x<6
The correct first step to solve the inequality x-5<x/6 is option C. Multiply both sides of the inequality by x to simplify: x(x-5) < x(6).
The first step to solve the inequality x-5 < x/6 is to subtract x from both sides of the inequality. So the correct answer is C. Multiply both sides of the inequality by x to simplify: x-5 < 6.
