Solve One Step Inequalities-6th Grade

Front

What is an inequality?

Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean?

Back

'≥' means 'greater than or equal to'.

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean?

Back

'≤' means 'less than or equal to'.

Front

How do you solve the inequality r - 14 ≥ 17?

Back

Add 14 to both sides to isolate r: r ≥ 31.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality -5m < 10?

Back

Divide both sides by -5 (remember to flip the inequality): m > -2.

Front

How do you solve the inequality 30 + n ≥ 50?

Back

Subtract 30 from both sides to isolate n: n ≥ 20.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality -4 + y < 8?

Back

Add 4 to both sides to isolate y: y < 12.

Front

What is the first step to solve x - 62 = 123?

Back

Add 62 to both sides to isolate x.

Front

What is the difference between an equation and an inequality?

Back

An equation states that two expressions are equal, while an inequality shows that one expression is greater or less than another.

Front

What does it mean to isolate a variable?

Back

To isolate a variable means to get the variable alone on one side of the equation or inequality.
