Solving Two-Step Inequalities in Pre-Algebra

This video tutorial covers the topic of inequalities, starting with an introduction to the concept and its recent grade-level changes. It provides detailed instructions on solving equations and word problems, followed by an explanation of two-step inequalities and their characteristics. The tutorial includes guidance on graphing inequalities on a number line, with several example problems and solutions. The lesson concludes with practice problems and a summary of key points.

What was the first step in solving the 'Do Now' activity problem where x was found to be 10?

• Dividing both sides by 5

• Multiplying both sides by 25

• Subtracting x from both sides

• Adding 10 to both sides
