@tylerchifan316  I am so sorry! my WiFi messed up....

tylerchifan316 · Answer

Thats ok haha

abbycross167 · Answer

when I need to add 6 to both sides would it be...
 -6+6 – x > 7+6?

tylerchifan316 · Answer

Nope after you add six to both sides it becomes
- x > 15
After this you multiply both sides by negative 1

abbycross167 · Answer

oh okay

tylerchifan316 · Answer

So what do you get for your answer?

abbycross167 · Answer

so then it'll be -x*-1>15*-1
and that equals   x > -13     ?

tylerchifan316 · Answer

x > -15. Nothing changes except the negative sign

abbycross167 · Answer

@tylerchifan316  what do you mean?

tylerchifan316 · Answer

If you multiply - 1 to each side of - x > 15, nothing changes except the negative sign. It moves from behind the x, to in front of the 15. So now your answer is x > -15
