\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x%3C-8\"$ Start with the given inequality.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%3E%28-8%29%2F%28-2%29\"$ Divide both sides by $\"-2\"$ to isolate $\"x\"$ . note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number. \r
