Question

Solve -2/3n<16 which of the following must be true about the inequality and the resulting graph? Select three options.

A. n < -24
B. n > -24
C. The circle is open
D. The circle is closed
E. The arrow points right.

Answer 1

Answer: b d e

Explanation:

Answer 2

n > -24 The circle is open. The arrow points right.

Explanation:

To solve for n, divide both sides by -2/3.

When you divide an inequality by a negative number, reverse the inequality.

Here < becomes >.

Dividing by a fraction is done by multiplying by its reciprocal.

16 ÷ -2/3 becomes 16 × -3/2. That's -24.

The open circle means not equal to.

n is all the numbers greater than -24, so the arrow points right.
