Lamar · Answer 1

Answer: 18 ≤ x < 0

Step-by-step explanation:

-44 > - 2x - 8 ≥ - 8

-36 > - 2x ≥ 0 added 8 to all three sides

18 < x ≤ 0 divided all three sides by - 2 (which flips the inequality signs)

Danielle Mcintosh · Answer 2

-44>-2x-8

Add 8 on both sides

-36>-2x

Divide by - 2 dice your x can't be negative

18
The sign flips when you divide by a negative. Therefore if the question is a true or false question, the answer would be false
