Giselle is correct. The inequality symbol must stay the same when multiplying both sides of the inequality by a negative number. The correct solution to the inequality is:
56x ≤ -10
Juana, Anish, and Giselle are comparing their solutions to the inequality 56x≤−10. Juana says that the inequality symbol must be reversed because there is a negative sign in the inequality. Anish says the Multiplication Property of Inequality or Division Property of Inequality must be applied. Giselle says the inequality symbol must stay the same
