1. 4 < 7 Multiply both sides by 3, then by 2, then by 4, then by 9

2. 11 > -2 Add 3 to both sides, then add 3, then add (-4)

3. -2 < -2 Subtract 6 from both sides, then 8, and then 2

4. -4 < 8 Divide both sides by -4, then by -2

5. Write a short explanation of the effects of the above operations. Did this affect the inequality sign? Was it still true? Why or why not?

Answer:

1. 864 < 1512

2. 12 > 0

3. question 3 is wrong -2 = -2

4. -0.5 < 1

5. In the above operations, they did not effect the inequality sign because the same operation is being done to both sides, therefore the inequality sentences all remained true.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (3)(4) < (7)(3)

(2)12 < 21(2)

(4)24 < 42(4)

(9)96 < 168(9)

= 864 < 1512

2. 3+11 > -2+3

3+ 13 > 1 + 3

-4+16 > 4-4

= 12 > 0

3. -2 = -2 (question 3 is wrong)

4. -4/-4 < 8/-4

1/-2 > -2/-2

= -0.5 < 1
