A-multiply both sides by 6
B-add 2 to both sides
C- change the direction of the inequality
D- change it to less than or equal to

Answer 1

A. multiply both sides by 6

Explanation:

basic math

Answer 2

multiply both sides by 6

Explanation:

the first step in solving the inequality m-2/6 less than -1

`(m-2)/(6)` < -1

To solve the inequality we need to get 'm' alone

we have m-2 in the numerator

First we start with removing the number from the denominator

LEts try to remove 6 from the denominator

To remove 6 we do opposite operation

So we multiply both sides by 6

m - 2 < -6

First step is to multiply both sides by 6
