Question

Directions: Follow the instructions for the following inequalities. 1. 4<7 Multiply both sides by 7 , then by 6, then by 3, then by 10 2. 11>-2 Add 5 to both sides, then add 3, then add (-4) 3. -4<-2 Subtract 6 from both sides, then 8, and then 2 4. -8<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

In the given question, we have to perform this experiment and test if the inequality is true or not.

Adding the same value to both sides of the inequality will not change the inequality sign

Inequality

data;

• 4 < 7
• 11 > - 2
• -4 < - 2
• -8 < 8

In the first case, we would do follow the process

$6 * 7 * 4 < 7 * 7 * 6\\168 < 294$

In the second case;

$11 > - 2\\\\5 + 11 > -2 + 5\\3 + 16 > 3 + 3\\4+ 19 > 6 + 4\\23 > 10$

In all the scenarios, the operations did not affect the inequality sign because we are doing it equally to all side and at the end of the day nullifies each other.
