Given the inequality
y/-6 > 10
Solve the inequality.
Solution:
In order to solve the inequality, we need to multiply both sides by -6, hence we must take note for the rules of inequality dealing with negatives. When a negative number is multiplied or divide in both sides of the equation, the sign of the inequality changes.
y/-6 > 10
(6)y/-6 > (10)(-6)
y < -60
Final answer:
D. y < - 60
