this isn't an answer,

Answer 21

really?

Answer 22

-q>32 or q<-32 which one?

Answer 23

I multiplied by -1

Answer 24

q>-32

Answer 25

Close, but when you multiple an inequality times a negative number it flips over, becaomes the opposite, from more than to less than and vica versa.

Answer 26

Do you know why is this true?

Answer 27

oh, ok and no

Answer 28

Think logically, lets say you have 2>-3 right if you multiply by -1
would you be getting -2>3 or -2<3
