Which of the following inequalities expresses the exact same inequality as -2y < -4x - 20 ?
correct answer y > 2x + 10
correct answer y < 2x - 10
correct answer y > -2x - 10
correct answer y < 2x + 10
Next Question

Explanation

By dividing both sides of the formula by -2, we can get it in the same form as the answers. But, we must remember that multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number causes the inequality to flip. So dividing the formula -2y < -4x - 20 through by -2, causes it to become y > 2x + 10.
