Solve -2p < -14

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

You would divide both sides by -2. Which will give you -7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

p > -7 or p <-7

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

The second one.

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

The sign stays the same.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but wouldn't the 7 be positive because -2 goes into -14 7 times?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Oh. yea. Sorry. it is actually positive 7. Sorry about that mistake.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its okay, thank you for your help though!

p>7
