Answer:
e < -12
Step-by-step explanation:
In algebra, we always need to follow a set of steps that involve undoing the operations that led to the equation to reveal the value of x.
Step 1: Divide by -1/6
e < -12
(Since we divided by a negative number, we must reverse the inequality sign.)
Step 2: Check
(-1/6)(-12) > 2
2 > 2 ✅
Now we check a number less than -12, such as -14.
(-1/6)(-14) > 2
2 1/3 > 2 ✅
The correct answer is: e < -12
I'm always happy to help :)
