Graph and Solve One Step Inequalities

Front

What is an inequality?

Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean?

Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean?

Back

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

Front

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

Back

Add 14 to both sides: r ≥ 31.

Front

What does a closed dot on a number line indicate?

Back

A closed dot indicates that the number is included in the solution (used for ≤ and ≥).

Front

How do you graph the inequality h + 15 ≥ 24?

Back

First, solve for h: h ≥ 9. Then, graph a closed dot at 9 and shade to the right.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality p - 3 > -8?

Back

Add 3 to both sides: p > -5.

Front

What does the inequality x < 4 represent on a number line?

Back

It represents all numbers less than 4, with an open dot at 4.

Front

How do you solve the inequality 24 ≤ h + 15?

Back

Subtract 15 from both sides: h ≥ 9.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality r - 14 < 17?

Back

Add 14 to both sides: r < 31.
