Inequalities are just like regular equations with only one exception. Which is when yo multiply or divide by a negative number to both sides of the inequality sign you must flip it. But, for this inequality that rule will no apply. So, what I do to make it easier because I know we all see a different sign in an equation and we start to freak out. So, change the inequality sign to an equals sign to get a hang of working with them.
Example of changing an inequality sign to an equals sign:
Addition property of equality
or
Example of keeping the inequality sign

Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's check the first statement with an example. 2 and 3 are positive numbers and their sum (5) is also positive so his first statement is true.
To check the second statement let's look at the negative numbers -1 and -8 for example. Their sum (-9) is also negative so his second statement is true.
To check the third statement let's look at the numbers 9 and -5. One is positive and one is negative, but their sum (4) is positive, so his third statement is false. However if we look at the numbers 4 and -7, their sum is negative so the third statement is partially false.
