Multiple Choice

During a risk analysis review, you are evaluating an operational constraint model given by the inequality 8x2(5x)<4(x+9)+6x{}8x - 2(5 - x) < 4(x + 9) + 6x. By distributing and combining like terms, you simplify this expression to 10x10<10x+36{}10x - 10 < 10x + 36. When you subtract 10x{}10x from both sides, the variable is completely eliminated, leaving the unconditionally true statement 10<36-10 < 36. Based on standard algebraic rules, what does this outcome indicate about the correct solution set for the model?
