Solving Multi-Step Inequalities in Algebra 1

Mrs. Yaod teaches solving multi-step inequalities, emphasizing the importance of previous lessons. She demonstrates solving and graphing inequalities through various examples, including handling variables on both sides and special cases like infinite solutions and no solutions. The lesson concludes with solving for specific values of k in inequalities.

Why is it important to have watched the previous videos and completed the concept practice from 2.3 and 2.2?

• Because they cover basic arithmetic operations.

• Because they introduce the concept of inequalities.

• Because they include graphing techniques.

• Because they provide the foundation for solving multi-step inequalities.

What is the first step in solving the inequality 4a + 8 ≥ 0?

• Divide by 4.

• Multiply by 4.

• Add 8 to both sides.

• Subtract 8 from both sides.

What is the value of k for which the solution of the inequality is all real numbers?

• k ≤ (2x + 4) / (-x - 3)

• k ≥ (2x + 4) / (-x - 3)

• k ≤ (2x + 4) / (4r - 5)

• k ≥ (2x + 4) / (4r - 5)

What is the value of k for which the inequality has no solution?

• k ≤ (2x + 4) / (4r - 5)

• k ≥ (2x + 4) / (4r - 5)

• k ≤ (2x + 4) / (-x - 3)

• k ≥ (2x + 4) / (-x - 3)
