Question 1117482: When solving inequalities, the inequality is reversed when:
A. Subtracting both sides of the equal sign by a negative number.
B. Multiplying both sides of the equal sign by a positive number.
C. Dividing both sides of the equal sign by a positive number.
D. Dividing both sides of the equal sign by a negative number.
Multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative number changes positive numbers to negative and vice versa; that means the direction of the inequality has to change.
