Question

2.7 module 2 post-test

when solving inequalities, you always flip the inequality sign.
true
false

Explanation:

Analyze the statement

Using the Linear Inequalities knowledge point

The statement claims: "When solving inequalities, you always flip the inequality sign."

Evaluate the condition for flipping

Using the Linear Inequalities knowledge point

We only reverse (flip) the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number. For other operations, such as adding, subtracting, or multiplying/dividing by a positive number, the direction of the inequality remains the same. Since we do not "always" flip the sign, the statement is false.

Answer:

• True
• False (Correct answer)
