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.

-7b < 49Remember, when dividing or multiplying by negative numbers, the sign of the inequality is flipped.Therefore:b > -7
Almost. There's one new rule, which is that whenever you multiply or divide by a negative number, you have to flip the inequality sign. To see why, try achieving the same result without this step, using positive factors and subtraction: the equation must effectively flip itself around the sign.
you cant with the information that you gave
No, you only flip the inequality sign if you are dividing by a negative number on both sides of the inequality
You flip the inequality sign when you are dividing or multiplying both sides by a negative.You also flip the inequality sign when you "swap" the answers on both sides.The other time you flip the inequality sign is when raising both sides to a negative power. e.g. 5>4, but (5^-1)
When you divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign flips.
Yes you have to flip the sign.

negative flip
Nothing, you proceed as if the < or > was an =. If you're multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative, you flip the sign. e.g. < would go to >
Only when what you're multiplying by/dividing by is negative.
When dividing by negative numbers or dividing by fractions.
Only when you multiply or divide by a negative number
You need to flip the inequality sign when you multiply or divide both sides of the inequality by a negative number. For example, if you have an inequality like ( -2x < 6 ) and you divide by -2, it becomes ( x > -3 ). However, when adding or subtracting a number from both sides, the inequality sign remains unchanged.
