B) n – 6 ≥ 2; n ≥ 8<----------------
C) n + 6 ≥ 2; n ≤ 4
D) n + 6 ≥ 2; n ≥ 4

Answer 1

All are good except #7

g/-5 < -18
to "clear" the -5, we multiply both sides by -5, thus reversing the inequality sign

g > +90 , which is C

(looks like you added the -5)

Answer 2

I got them right, except on #5 the answer is B.
