Front

What is a one-step inequality?

Back

A one-step inequality is an inequality that can be solved in a single step, typically involving addition or subtraction.

Front

How do you solve the inequality m - 9 ≤ 20?

Back

Add 9 to both sides: m ≤ 29.

Front

What does the inequality x > -8 mean?

Back

It means that x is any number greater than -8.

Front

How do you solve the inequality x + 5 ≤ 13?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides: x ≤ 8.

Front

What does a closed dot on a number line represent?

Back

A closed dot represents that the number is included in the solution (≥ or ≤).

Front

What does an open dot on a number line represent?

Back

An open dot represents that the number is not included in the solution (> or <).

Front

What is the solution to the inequality x ≥ 3?

Back

The solution includes all numbers greater than or equal to 3.

Front

How do you graph the inequality x ≤ 3?

Back

Draw a number line, place a closed dot on 3, and shade to the left.

Front

What is the difference between ≤ and < in inequalities?

Back

≤ includes the number, while < does not.

Front

How do you solve the inequality 2x < 10?

Back

Divide both sides by 2: x < 5.
