Front

How do you solve the inequality -9h > -63?

Back

Divide both sides by -9 and flip the inequality sign: h < 7.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality x + 5 ≤ 13?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides: x ≤ 8.

Front

What happens to the inequality sign when you multiply or divide by a negative number?

Back

The inequality sign must be flipped (switched) when multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number.

Front

Solve the inequality -2x > -18.

Back

Divide both sides by -2 and flip the inequality sign: x < 9.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality a ≥ -104?

Back

The solution indicates that 'a' can be any number greater than or equal to -104.
