Answer:

D. is to the right of -0.9 on the horizontal number line

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is [tex]- \frac{4}{5} > - 0.9[/tex] i.e. - 0.8 > - 0.9 .......... (1)

Now, when in a number line a number a is greater than another number b, then a must be placed to the right of the number b on the number line.

So, in our case - 0.8 > - 0.9 is true and - 0.8 is tot he right of - 0.9 on the horizontal number line. (Answer)
