What is the first step when solving the following inequality x+2/-5<4? Group of answer choices A. Add 5 to both sides and DO NOT flip the inequality sign. B. Multiply both sides by -5 and DO NOT flip the inequality sign. C. Multiply both sides by -5 and flip the inequality sign. D. Subtract 2 from both sides and flip the inequality sign.

Assuming we're dealing with , which is the same as writing (x+2)/(-5) < 4, then the answer is choice C.

We multiply both sides by -5 and this will flip the inequality sign.

-------------------------------------

Multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number flips the inequality sign.

An example would be saying -2x < 10 leads to x > -5

What we can do is divide both sides by -2 and flip the inequality sign, or we could follow the steps shown below

the red lines denote the population of the bacteria after 35 hours. that would be 2,409.24. the y-intercept is the blue line which is 800 because that is the starting point. the equation used to make the graph is 800(1.032)^h, where h is the number of hours.
