Answer:

B) x<-12 or x>-6

Explanation:

-2/3x>8

change -2/3 as -3/2 and multiply both sides by -3/2x

-2/3x•(-2/3)x<-3/2•8

calculate

reduce

x<-3•4

multiply numbers

-----------

x<-12

-----------

now we're done with the first equation, let's do the other equation to find the answer!

-2/3x<4

multiply both sides by -3/2 and again change -2/3 by -3/2

-3/2•(-2/3)x>-3/2•4

calculate

reduce

x>-3•2

multiply numbers

----------

x>-6
