Question

solve the following inequality. -\frac{1}{2}p < - 16 which graph shows the correct solution? 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply both sides by -2

When multiplying an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign flips. So, $(-2)\times(-\frac{1}{2}p)>(-2)\times(-16)$.

Step2: Simplify

$p > 32$.

Answer:

The graph with an open - circle at 32 and an arrow pointing to the right (the first graph among the options shown in the picture where the open - circle is at 32 and the arrow goes to the right towards larger numbers).
