Can someone please answer this ASAP?

Answer:
Letter C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]5a+18<-27[/tex]
Subtract 18 from both sides
[tex]5a<-45[/tex]
Divide 5 from both sides to get [tex]a[/tex] alone
[tex]a<-9[/tex]
Letter C is the correct answer choice because the dot is at -9, the arrow is facing to the left, and the dot is open indicating that it's not greater/less than ""or equal to"".
Hope this is helpful
