9. James is asked what inequality symbol to be used to translate at most in the

mathematical sentence 5 times a number y plus 2 times a number x is at most
15. His answer is <. Is he correct?
A. Yes, because the symbol for at most is <.
B. Yes, because the symbol for at most is >.
C. No, because the symbol for at most is ≥.
D. No, because the symbol for at most is ≤.

10. John is multiplying the −2 to the linear inequality of two variables, 2𝑥 − 3𝑦 ≥ 5

his answer is −4𝑥 + 6𝑦 ≤ −10, is he correct?
A. Yes, because the product of the terms is correct and the inequality symbol is
reversed.
B. Yes, because the product of the terms is correct and the inequality symbol
does not change.
C. No, because multiplying a negative integer reverses the direction of the
inequality symbol.
D. No, because multiplying a negative integer does not change the inequality
symbol.
