Greg wrote in his math journal that 17 - x = 9 is an example of an algebraic equation. Which statement is true about the example Greg wrote in his math journal?

• Greg's example is an equation because there is a variable present.

• Greg's example is an equation because it is a number sentence stating two amounts are equivalent.

• Greg's example is an equation because x can represent any value.

• Greg's example is an equation because there are two numbers present.

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!
