Answer 9

and are you supposed to turn the greater than or equal to sign around?

Answer 10

when you multiply or divide by a negative number, yes

Answer 11

so would the answer be x is less than or equal to - 3/4?

Answer 12

by the way its -3/2

Answer 13

ohhh how do you get that though? I dont get how 6/-4 is that

Answer 14

6/-4 = 3/-2

you can check with calculator but it's (3/-2)*(2/2)

Answer 15

which is (3/-2)*1

Answer 16

so your basically just simplifying the 6/-4

Answer 17

yes. and final answer is x <= -3/2
