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?

Thanks!

Answer:No, it didn't affect the inequality sign because we multiplied and divided by a negative number. In the 4th operation, the inequality sign changed because we divided by a negative number

Explanation:

1. 4<7 Multiply both sides by 7, then by 6, then by 3, then by 10 2. 11>-2 Add-example-1
