1.

Remember when you multiply an inequality by negative number, -1, in this case, the signs flips (greater than becomes less than and vice versa).
Let check the answer.
We'll pick y=0, since 0>-36.


True, good answer.
2.
Multiply both sides by (-7/2), signs flip.

Let check the answer.
We'll pick e=0,since 0>-5/4.


True, good answer.
