Answer:

As per the statement:

5-x is greater than 4

[tex]\text{"greater than"} means '>'[/tex]

From the given statement, we get an inequality:

[tex]5-x > 4[/tex]

Subtract 5 from both sides ;

[tex]5-x-5 > 4-5[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]-x > -1[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -1  (reverse the inequality) :we get;

x < 1

Therefore, the  solution for this inequality is : x < 1 or [tex](-\infty, 1)[/tex]
