What are inequalities?

Inequalities are mathematical expressions involving symbols such as < (less than), > (greater than), ? (less than or equal to), or ? (greater than or equal to), used to compare the quantities on either side of the expression. They represent a relationship between two values, indicating that one value is either smaller or larger than the other.

How do you graph inequalities on a number line?

To graph inequalities on a number line, first identify the variable being used in the inequality. Then, locate the solution to the inequality on the number line by plotting an open circle for "<" or ">" and a closed circle for "?" or "?" at the corresponding number. Finally, shade to the right if the inequality is > or ?, and shade to the left if the inequality is < or ?. The shaded region represents all the values that satisfy the given inequality on the number line.

What is the difference between a less than and a greater than inequality symbol?

The less than symbol (<) is used to compare two values where the first value is smaller than the second value, while the greater than symbol (>) is used when the first value is larger than the second value. In math, the less than symbol points to the smaller number and the greater than symbol points to the larger number.

How do you solve one-step inequalities?

To solve one-step inequalities, you perform the same operation on both sides of the inequality sign, just like solving equations. If you divide or multiply by a negative number, remember to flip the inequality sign. After solving, the result will show the range of values that satisfy the inequality.

How do you solve multi-step inequalities?

To solve multi-step inequalities, start by simplifying both sides of the inequality by applying operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Remember to perform the same operation on both sides to maintain the inequality. Continue simplifying until you isolate the variable on one side. Then, determine the solution by following the rules of inequality and remember to reverse the inequality sign if you multiply or divide by a negative number. Finally, write your solution in interval notation or set notation, depending on the instructions given.

How can you check if a solution is true for an inequality?

To check if a solution is true for an inequality, you simply substitute the values of the solution into the inequality and evaluate if it holds true. If the inequality is maintained with the substituted values, then the solution is legitimate; otherwise, the solution is invalid.

How do you graph a system of inequalities?

To graph a system of inequalities, first graph each inequality separately to determine the shaded regions for each. Then, identify the overlapping shaded region where all inequalities are satisfied. This overlapping region represents the solution set for the system of inequalities and is the area that should be shaded on the graph.

How can you solve word problems involving inequalities?

To solve word problems involving inequalities, first, translate the problem into mathematical expressions or equations. Identify the unknown variable and the inequality sign (e.g., >, <, ?, ?). Then, follow the rules for solving inequalities based on the given conditions. This may involve adding or subtracting numbers, multiplying or dividing by a coefficient, or using algebraic techniques to isolate the variable. Finally, interpret your solution in the context of the original word problem to ensure it makes sense and accurately answers the question posed.

How do you solve absolute value inequalities?

To solve absolute value inequalities, you first isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the inequality. Then, set up two cases: when the expression inside the absolute value is positive and when it is negative, and solve for the variable in each case. Finally, combine the two sets of solutions based on the original inequality sign to determine the final solution set.

How do you solve compound inequalities?

To solve compound inequalities, treat them like normal inequalities and solve each individual inequality separately. Then, combine the solutions based on the given relationship (AND or OR) between the inequalities. For "AND" compound inequalities, find the intersection of the two solutions. For "OR" compound inequalities, find the union of the two solutions. Remember to reverse the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number.
