How do you solve an inequality when using the distributive property?

You solve an inequality in the same way as you would solve an equality (equation). The only difference is that if you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign. Thus, if you have -3x < 9 to find x, you need to divide by -3. That is a negative number so -3x/(-3) > 9/(-3) reverse inequality x > -3


Is a negative number added to a negative number positive or negative?

The answer to a problem that has a negative number added to a negative number would be negative.It would be a negative


What do you do when you have a negative variable?

When you have a negative variable in an equation that you are trying to solve for, you multiply each side of the equation by -1. If it is an inequality such as <, you would flip the sign to > and vice versa.


To graph the inequality is y less than or equal to negative 5x plus 3 you would draw a solid line?

FALSE


How did the Three Fifths Compromise settle the serious problem witih slavery?

The three-fifths compromise helped the south because slaves were counted as three fifths of a person so it would help get more seats in congress. It helped the north because slavery would be banned in 1808.hi


What is the LCM of two fifths and one eighth?

The LCM of 5 and 8 is 40, which in this problem would be the least common denominator.


How would you solve this inequality if it is -2x4?

I would not waste my time, because that's not an inequality.


What is the difference between solving multi step equations and multi step inequalities?

The main difference is that if you multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you have to change the direction of the inequality sign - for example "greater than" would become "less than".


Is one and one fifths greater than eight fifths?

No because eight fifths would become 1 and 3 fifths


Why do you flip the inequality sign when you multiply or divide by negative numbers?

because if you didn't the inequality would not be true. ex. -3x<15 when you solve it WITHOUT CHANGING THE SIGN, you get x<-5 when you graph that, a possible answer is -7 If you plug that in to the inequality, you get -3(-7)<15 BUT that's not true! so therefor you need to flip the sign direction :)


How do you solve an inequality in one variable?

It depends on the specific inequality. In the simplest cases, it is solved just like an equation; except that you must be careful when multiplying and dividing - if you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, you must switch the inequality sign. For instance, a "less-than" sign would be changed to a "greater-than" sign.


How do you multiply a positive and a negative integer?

well a positive times a negative equals a negative so if the problem was -8 times 9 it would equal -72
