Sample response: Both inequalities use the division property to isolate the variable, y. When you divide by a negative number, like –7, you must reverse the direction of the inequality sign. When you divide by a positive number, like 7, the inequality sign stays the same. The solution to the first inequality is y > -23, and the solution to the second inequality is y < -23. Which did you include in your response? Check any that apply.You use the division property of inequality to isolate the vari
Answer
A
You use the division property of inequality to isolate the variable for both inequalities.
B
You need to reverse the direction of the inequality symbol when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Explanation
The response says the division property is used to isolate y in both inequalities, which matches choice A. It also explains that dividing by −7 requires reversing the inequality sign, which matches choice B.
