Answer:

 Sam made it -24 versus 24  (29-5=24  not -24)

(Sam failed to flip the inequality)

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + 5 > 29

Subtract 5 from each side

-4x+5-5 > 29-5

-4x > 24      Sam made it -24 versus 24  (29-5=24  not -24)

Divide by -4  Remember to flip the inequality

-4x/-4 < 24/-4   (Sam failed to flip the inequality)

x < -6

Answer:

Sam subtracted wrong. it should be 29 - 5 = 24, not - 24.

When dividing by a negative, in an inequality, you must flip the sign. Sam did not flip his sign when dividing by -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer should be x < -6
