The inequality $X < 0$ is already in its simplest form and doesn't require further solving in the traditional sense. However, interpreting and understanding the inequality involves identifying the set of numbers that satisfy it.

Interpretation and Solution Set

• Inequality: $X < 0$
• Solution Set: All real numbers that are less than zero.

Graphical Representation

On a number line, this solution would be represented by shading the portion of the line to the left of 0, excluding 0 itself. An open circle would be placed at 0 to indicate that $X = 0$ is not included in the solution set.

Example Values

Here are some values that satisfy $X < 0$:

• $X = -3$
• $X = -0.5$
• $X = -100$

These values are all less than zero, so they satisfy the inequality.
