Dividing a Negative across an Inequality

The video tutorial explains how to solve multi-step inequalities, emphasizing the importance of handling negative numbers correctly. It demonstrates that solving inequalities is similar to solving equations, except when multiplying or dividing by a negative number, which requires flipping the inequality sign. The tutorial provides a detailed example, showing each step in solving an inequality, including distributing, dividing, and flipping the sign. The final solution is presented, reinforcing the key concepts discussed.
