Please hurry.............The table gives an inequality and a number to multiply both sides of the inequality by. Identify the new, true inequality.

A: (24 > 16) (24 < 16) (24 = 16)
B: (-22 > -6) (-22 < -6) (-22 = -6)
C: (21 > -18) (21 < -18) (21 = -18)
D: (-25 > 5) (-25 < 5) (-25 = 5)
Multiplying both sides of an inequality by a positive number (does not change or reverses) the inequality symbol.
the things in "()" are the answer choices lol.

Answer:

A 3-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled Inequality with entries 8 greater-than 2, negative 10 less-than negative 2, 15 greater-than negative 5, negative 7 less-than 4. Column 2 is labeled Multiply each side by: with entries negative 2, negative 4, negative 3, negative 5. Column 3 is labeled New Inequality with entries A, B, C, D.

The table gives an inequality and a number to multiply both sides of the inequality by. Identify the new, true inequality.

A:

✔ –16 < –4

B:

✔ 40 > 8

C:

✔ –45 < 15

D:

✔ 35 > –20

Multiplying both sides of an inequality by a negative number

✔ reverses

the inequality symbol.

Explanation:

hope this helps
