Objective To solve inequalities that contain variables on both sides
Special Cases
Let’s Practice! Solve each problem in your notes. Think about which placard represents that problem ◦ (no solution, one solution, infinitely many solutions) Hold up your placard when asked
Question 1 Solve the following inequality. 4(y – 1) ≥ 4y + 2 NO SOLUTION!
Question 2 Solve the following inequality. 2y – 1 ≥ 2y – 2 INFINITELY MANY SOLUTIONS!
Question 3 Solve the following inequality. 2y – 11 ≥ 2y + 2 NO SOLUTION!
Question 4 Solve the following inequality. y – 10 ≥ 3y -4 INFINITELY MANY SOLUTIONS!! WHY?!
Question 5 Solve the following inequality. y – 10 ≥ y - 10 INFINITELY MANY SOLUTIONS!!
Question 6
Question 7 Solve the following inequality. t < 5t + 24 Infinitely many solutions!

Exit Card 1. How can you tell just by looking at the inequality x> x+1 that it has no solutions? 2. How are inequalities and equations different when comparing their possible solutions? Solve the following inequalities. Do not graph. 3. 2x+5 > -2x x – 2 < 3x -1
