One step inequalities (Multiplication and Division)

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'.

Front

How do you solve an inequality involving multiplication?

Back

To solve an inequality involving multiplication, divide both sides by the same positive number. If you divide by a negative number, reverse the inequality sign.

Front

Solve the inequality: 3x > 12

Back

x > 4.

Front

What does the symbol '<' mean?

Back

The symbol '<' means 'less than'.

Front

How do you solve an inequality involving division?

Back

To solve an inequality involving division, multiply both sides by the same positive number. If you multiply by a negative number, reverse the inequality sign.

Front

Solve the inequality: -4x < 16

Back

x > -4.

Front

What is the solution set of the inequality z ≤ 9?

Back

The solution set includes all numbers less than or equal to 9.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality 8x < 48?

Back

x < 6.
