Solving Inequalities by Multiplication and Division Algebra 1 Section 6.2
Multiplying or Dividing an Inequality by a negative number When multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number, you must remember to reverse the inequality. -3x -4
CAREFUL with negatives! A negative sign in an inequality does not necessarily mean that the direction of the inequality should change. Example: 5x > -15 x > -3 You divided BY 5 and INTO -15 so the inequality stays the same!
