Solving and Graphing Linear Inequalities Solving One-Step Linear Inequalities What’s an inequality? Is a range of values, rather than ONE set number An algebraic relation showing that a quantity is greater than or less than another quantity. Speed limit: Symbols Solutions….

Solving using Multiplication Solving Using Division Solving by multiplication of a negative # Solving by dividing by a negative # Homework * * Less than Greater than Less than OR EQUAL TO Greater than OR EQUAL TO You can have a range of answers…… -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 All real numbers less than 2 x 2 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 All real numbers greater than -2 x -2 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 All real numbers less than or equal to 1 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 All real numbers greater than or equal to -3 Did you notice, Some of the dots were solid and some were open? -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Why do you think that is? If the symbol is or then dot is open because it can not be equal. If the symbol is ? or ? then the dot is solid, because it can be that point too. Sue ran a 2-K race in 8 minutes. Write an inequality to describe the average speeds of runners who were faster than Sue. Graph the inequality. Faster average speed Distance Sue’s Time -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Solving a linear inequality in one variable is much like solving a linear equation in one variable. Isolate the variable on one side using inverse operations. Add the same number to EACH side. x – 3 5 Solve using addition: +3 +3 x 8 Subtract the same number from EACH side. -6 -6 Graph the
