HI!!

Answer 2

hi

Answer 3

they are similar because you will subtract 2 and then divide by \(-3\)

Answer 4

they are different because for the inequality when you divide by \(-3\) you have to change the sense of the inequality
equal sign stays the same

the nethods are the same except when dividing both sides by a negative number. In the case of the inequality the sign is flipped
