One step inequality (NO GRAPH)

Front

What is an inequality?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean to 'flip' the inequality symbol?

Back

Flipping the inequality symbol means changing it from < to > or from ≤ to ≥ when multiplying or dividing both sides of the inequality by a negative number.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality x - 2 > -18?

Back

x > -16.

Front

When solving an inequality, what happens if you add a positive number?

Back

You do not flip the inequality symbol.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality 2x > -18?

Back

x > -9.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality -2x > -18?

Back

x < 9 (flip the symbol because of dividing by -2).

Front

What is the solution to the inequality x - 9 > 10?

Back

x > 19.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality -9h > -63?

Back

h < 7 (flip the symbol because of dividing by -9).

Front

What is the solution to the inequality -48 < 12c?

Back

c > -4.

Front

What happens to the inequality symbol when you multiply both sides by a negative number?

Back

The inequality symbol must be flipped.
