-3p > 105
divide both sides by -3 and remember that when multiplying or dividing by a negative number, you reverse the sense of the inequality:
p < -35
To check to make sure the answer makes sense, select a value of p that is less than -35. For example, -100:
(-3)(-100) > 105
300 > 105
which is true.

What inequality is greater than or equal to -5?
An inequality has no magnitude. A number can be greater than or equal to -5, but not an inequality.
What is the effect of multiplying both sides of an inequality by a negative number?
It changes the direction of the inequality.
Why it is necessary to reverse the inequality symbol when multiplying both side of an inequality by a negative number?
You need to reverse the inequality symbol when multiplying both sides of an inequality by a negative number because you are changing the sign of both sides of the equation. Since inequality, such as "less than", means "to the left of" on the number line (where left is minus and right is plus) then a number that is less than another will be greater than the other if the signs were reversed. Example: 3 is less than 4, but -3 is greater than -4.
What is a math inequality?
An inequality is when a variable and its coeefecient is greater than something. For example, 5x is greater than 2.
Solve this inequality 9h plus 2 is less than negative 79?
9h + 2 < - 79 9h < - 81 h < - 9
