Multiplying and Dividing Negatives Inequalities

A negative divided by a negative is a ________

• positive

• negative

-5 x 2 = 

• -3

• -10

• -15

• 10

• c ≥ -42
• c ≥ 42
• c ≤ -42
• c ≤ 42

• h > 10
• h > -10
• h < 10
• h < -10

What happens to the symbol when you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number?

• It stays the same

• It has to flip

When you MULTIPLY or DIVIDE the inequality symbol by a NEGATIVE number ​ (a)   changes.

• NEVER

• SOMETIMES

• ALWAYS

Here's the exception! When you multiply or divide both sides of the inequality by a negative number, you must flip/reverse the inequality sign!

• Got it! Just like in the video!

• Hmmm, I hope I remember. Feeling shaky!

This inequality NEEDS to be FLIPPED because ​ (a)  

• you divide by a NEGATIVE number to solve

• you multiply by a NEGATIVE number to solve

• x is on WRONG side of the < > ≤ ≥ symbol

What is important to do when you divide or multiply by a negative when solving an inequality?

• The inequality sign must flip

• The inequality sign must stay the same

• Nothing happens

(Hint: Remember the rule about multiplying or dividing by a negative for inequalities!)

• x < -96

• x < 20

• x = 6

• x > 96
