Answer with explanation:

Mathematically , john's statement is wrong which is:→ if one side of an inequality is 0, you  don’t have to reverse the inequality symbol when you multiply or divide  both sides by a negative number.

Counterexample :Consider an example

→ 4x  ≥ 0, where x is a positive integer.

If we multiply or divide both sides by , -1, the inequality would result into

→ -4x ≤ 0

This transformed inequality is valid only when ,x is a Positive Integer.Here after multiplying by negative integer ,if we will not change the inequality sign, it will be an invalid Inequality.

He may be wrong. If he was wrong, this is the example. 

0 < -10x

If we were to divide both sides by -10, even though the answer would be undefined or just end up as zero, it is just a common rule to always flip the sign whenever you divide or multiply by a negative. 

Don't quote me on it, but I think I'm right.

Hope this helped!

Find the value of x and y.
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

x = 30

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please note: the value for x is correct only if this triangle is a right triangle.

This can be solved because 2(5y) = 20 and because if a triangle has all congruent angles then its side lengths are also congruent.
