y/-6 > 10
y < -60

Looks like D

When you multiply be a negative value, change the direction of the inequality. It's just a shorthand way to make things switch sides. Since

y/-6 > 10
that's the same as
-y/6 > 10
add y/6 to both sides to get
0 > 10 + y/6
now subtract 10 to get
-10 > y/6
now multiply by 6 to get
-60 > y
or
y < -60
Thank you so much I have put your info into my notes....
