Heavenfun13, you have to remember to flip the sign when dividing by a negative.

Well I worked it our like this, if X> -8 you would substitute a -7 for X: \[5-(-7+5) > -2(-7+4) = 7 > 6\] this shows you that anything greater than -8 will work so A is the correct answer... Hope this helped !!!- Bree :) <3
