Answer 2

`x<(16)/(125)`

Explanation:

First we will multiply everything by 10 to get rid of the decimals.

`4.2x*10+5.6*10<7.2*10-8.3x*10\\42x+56<72-83x`

Subtract 56 from both sides:

`42x+56-56<72-83x-56\\42x<-83x+16`

Add 83x to both sides:

`42x+83x<-83x+16+83x\\125x<16`

Divide both sides by 125:

`(125x)/(125)<(16)/(125)\\x<(16)/(125)`
