More on inequalities (7th grade math/prealgebra)

First we look at a problem that arises when you divide an inequality by a negative number. There is a workaround... you can add something to both sides first, to avoid that. But the shortcut is to flip the sign.

Secondly, you will learn how to check a solution to an inequality. We take test values, some that are in the solution set and some that are not, and check whether they fulfill the inequality or not.
