Question

How do you solve `-\frac { q } { 8} > - 4`?

Answer 1

`q<32`

Explanation:

Attack the problem has you would an equality, UNLESS you multiply or divide by a negative number, in which case, the sign needs to be flipped.

`-q/8>(-4)`

Multiply both sides of the equation by `-8` so the sign needs to be flipped:

`q<32`
