Multiply and Divide Inequalities

-13t > 26

• t > -2

• t > 2

• t < 2

• t < -2

You flip an inequality symbol when you...

• subtract

• multiply and divide only

• multiple by a negative number

• multiple or divide by a negative number

What is the rule for one or two-step inequalities when multiplying or dividing by a negative coefficient (number)?

• No change

• Flip the sign

• Make your answer a positive number

• Get rid of the negative sign

2x > 12

• x > 6

• x < 6

• x ≥ 6

• x ≤ 6

When solving inequalities, if you multiply or​ ​ (a)   both sides by a ​ (b)   number, you must ​ (c)   the ​ (d)   symbol.

• divide

• negative

• flip

• inequality

• add

• positive

• equal

This inequality needs to be flipped. Choose the reason why:

Describe the error in solving the inequality.

• They did not "flip" the sign.

• They divided by -4 but should have multiplied by -4 on both sides.

• They divided by -4 but should have added 4 to both sides.

• They divided by -4, but should have divided by 4.

What is the next step:

(1/2) x ≤ 5

• divide both side by 2

• multiply both side by 2

• divide both side by 2

• subtract both side by 2

• divide both side by (1/2)

Solve: 
-2 ≥ n / -3

• n ≤ 1

• n ≥ 6

• n ≥ 2/3

• h > 10

• h > -10

• h < 10

• h < -10
