Please help with pre-algebra inequalities?

r/4 – 10 > – 11

- 8w+7>5

2< 6/5c+14

0.6 > 1.4+2.4x

5< 3- 2x/3

1/6 - 8 <8r - r/6

-6x + 3< -18

y/2+1< -3/2

9-g<4

-12 > -4x + 8

-2/5x-10>2

-6 > -2x + -10

i no its a lot but it was lk i worksheet with 60 questions!
im n 6th grade n if it is help me

with inequalities you do the same as if it was an equal sign. The ONLY difference (and this is important) is that if you multiply or divide by a NEGATIVE you have to switch the sign from < to > or vice versa.
For example on your second one:

- 8w+7>5

subtract seven from both sides = -8w > -2

then divide both sides by -8
w < 1/4

because we divided by -8 the sign switches around.

But like for your first problem, r/4 - 10 > – 11 you just add 10 to both sides, and multiply by 4. you dont need to switch signs. so you would get r > -4
