5x-6(x+9)<1
5x-6x-54<1 Distribute
-x-54<1 Add like terms
-x<1+54
-x<55
x<-55
The girl on top's is wrong because when she multiplied -6 by 9 she should've got -54 because a positive and a negative equals a negative

ok first distribute so you get
5x-6x+54<1
now combine like terms and get
-x+54<1
now subtract from both sides
-x<-53
now multiply -1 to both sides becasue you cant have a negative variable
you now have
x<53
