I did the problem. & im in cyberschool, so she gave me a 20% and commented back saying: " Youve missed applying the one rule that is different for solving inequalities from solving equation.

2+%3C+-8s+
dividing both sides by 8:
2%2F8+%3C+-s+
1%2F4+%3C+-s+
multiplying both sides by -1:
+-1%2F4+%3E+s+ (note: the inequality sign is flipped)
