If x < 0, which of the following inequalities must be true?

A x² < x
B 1/x > x
C -x > x
D x + 1 < 0

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

If x is a negative number, then -x is a positive number. A positive number is always greater than a negative number. For example, if x = -2, then -x = 2, and 2 > -2. The other options are not always true for all x < 0.
