Solving Inequalities (Multiply and Divide)

Front

What is an inequality?

Back

An inequality is a mathematical statement that compares two expressions using symbols such as <, >, ≤, or ≥.

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'.

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean?

Back

The symbol '≥' means 'greater than or equal to'.

Front

When do you flip the inequality sign?

Back

You flip the inequality sign when you multiply or divide both sides of the inequality by a negative number.

Front

Solve the inequality: 5x > 20

Back

x > 4.

Front

Solve the inequality: -3y ≤ 12

Back

y ≥ -4.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality: 2x + 3 < 11?

Back

x < 4.

Front

If 4x - 8 < 0, what is the value of x?

Back

x < 2.

Front

What is the first step to solve the inequality: 3x + 5 ≥ 14?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides: 3x ≥ 9.

Front

What does it mean if an inequality has no solution?

Back

It means that there are no values that can satisfy the inequality.
