What happens to the inequality symbol when you subtract a negative number?
The inequality symbol doesn't change direction in this case.Note that that is the same as adding a positive number.Note also that if you MULTIPLY or DIVIDE by a negative number, then you need to change the direction of the inequality symbol.
When you have to reverse the inequality sign?
The usual case is when you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number.
When you must reverse the inequality sign?
When solving an inequality, you must revers the inequality sign when you multiply (or divide) both sides by a negative number.
What happens if you add or subtract a value to both sides of an inequality?
The direction of the inequality remains unchanged. The direction changes when you divide or multiply both sides by a negative number. It also changes if both sides are raised to a negative exponent.
Do you switch the sign when you multiply or divide an inequality?
Only when what you're multiplying by/dividing by is negative.

What happens when you multiply or divide an inequalitie by a negative number?
When an inequality is multiplied or divided by a negative number the inequality sign is reversed.Example : -x < 7 ......after multiplying by (say) -2 this becomes 2x > -14
What must you do when you multiply or divide each side of an inequality by a negative number?
When you multiply or divide each side of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the direction of the inequality sign. For example, if you have ( a < b ) and you multiply both sides by a negative number, the inequality changes to ( -a > -b ). This reversal is crucial to maintain the correct relationship between the two sides of the inequality.
If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a number you need to reverse the inequality sign?
negative flip
What must occur in a linear inequality when you divide or multiply by a negative number?
The inequality sign must be flipped.
What happens when you multiply or divide by a negative?
the answer becomes negative
When you solve an inequality and the first step was to multiply or divide by a negative?
yes ... and so?
Do you only flip the inequality when you divide by a negative number?
Yes you do, you also flip the inequality sign if you multiply by a negative # The > and < signs are strictly the "Greater than" and "Less than" signs. The inequality sign is an = with a / stroke through it. If you divide an inequality by -1 it remains an inequality.
