*******ALERT!!!!*******
*In spite of our problem-solving in class today, we wrote the inequality wrong to the problem we solved (#32: n/-3 is less than -6; solved in that n is greater than -18)
WHEN you are multiplying or dividing by a negative integer, if you MOVE it to the other side, the inequality flips as well. (Just like Tyler's dad said, so we're not firing him)
In fact, this is the solution we came to, then we still wrote the inequality incorrectly. Remember? We determined that positive 33 worked, but -33 did not ... and +33 is definitely larger than -18, yes?
Sorry about the confusion ...we will go over this in class on Friday. Period 4 addressed this today when I caught the mistake.
*ANYWAY - Due Friday!
