Exercise 22 Page 190

Remember that whenever we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, we need to flip the inequality sign.

d<-4

Practice makes perfect
We solve inequalities similarly to how we solve equations. Let's begin by using the Distributive Property. Remember that whenever we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative, we need to flip the sign.
-4(d+5)-3d>8
-4d-20-3d>8
-7d-20>8
-7d>28
d<-4
The solution set includes all real numbers less than -4.
