One Step Inequalities

When solving an inequality, if you divide by a negative, you have to FLIP the sign.

• true

• false

-24 + k ≤ 10

• k ≤ 14

• 34 ≤ k

• k ≤ 34

• 14 ≤ k

Find the solution to...
-48 < 12c

• c > -4

• -4 > c

• c < -4

• 4 < c

Find the solution to
k /  -2 < 10             (remember / means to divide)

• k < -5

• k > -5

• k < -20

• k > -20

Select the inequality that will require "flipping/switching the symbol."

• x - 2 > -18

• x + 2 > -18

• 2x > -18

• -2x > -18

Does the sign need to flip when solving this inequality?
3k ≥ -15

• Yes 

• No

x + 5 > 7

• x > -2

• x > 2

• x > 12

• x > -12

8x < 48

• x < -6

• x > -6

• x < 6

• x > 6

Solve the inequality
x - 2 < 5

• x < 3

• x ≥ 7

• x < 7

• x ≤ 7

Solve the inequality
12 ≥ 6w

• w > 2

• w < 2

• w ≥ 2

• w ≤ 2
