Inequalities and their graphs
Solving One-Step Inequalities Examples: x - 15 < 3 2. M - 13 > 29 3. V - 4 < 7 4. T - 5 > 11 5. -16 < y - 14 6. X - 9 > -11
Solving One-Step Inequalities - ans Examples: x - 15 < 3 2. M - 13 > 29 x < 18 m > 42 3. V - 4 < 7 4. T - 5 > 11 v < 11 T > 16 5. -16 < y - 14 y > -2 6. X - 9 > -11 x > -2
Solve Two-Step Inequalities Solve the same way as solving two-step equations. When dividing or multiplying by a negative number you must reverse (flip) the inequality sign
1) Solve 5m - 8 > 12 + 8 + 8 5m > 20 5 5 m > 4 5(5) – 8 = 12 Add 8 to both sides Divide both sides by 5 Check your answer Graph the solution + 8 + 8 5m > 20 5 5 m > 4 5(5) – 8 = 12 o 4 5 3
2) Solve 12 - 3a > 18 - 12 - 12 -3a > 6 -3 -3 a < -2 - 12 - 12 -3a > 6 -3 -3 a < -2 12 - 3(-3) = 18 Subtract 12 from both sides Divide both sides by -3 (Switch the inequality!) Check your answer Graph the solution o -2 -1 -3
Which graph shows the solution to 2x - 10 ≥ 4? . Answer Now
3) Solve 5m - 4 < 2m + 11 o -2m -2m 3m - 4 < 11 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 3m < 15 3 3 m < 5 5(4) – 4 = 2(4) + 11 Subtract 2m from both sides Add 4 to both sides Divide both sides by 3 Check your answer Graph the solution o 5 6 4
4) Solve 2r - 18 ≤ 5r + 3 ● -2r -2r -18 ≤ 3r + 3 - 3 - 3 -21 ≤ 3r 3 3 Subtract 2r from both sides Subtract 3 from both sides Divide both sides by 3 Check your answer Graph the solution -2r -2r -18 ≤ 3r + 3 - 3 - 3 -21 ≤ 3r 3 3 -7 ≤ r or r ≥ -7 2(-7) – 18 = 5(-7) + 3 ● -7 -6 -8
6) Solve -2x + 6 ≥ 3x - 4 x ≥ -2 x ≤ -2 x ≥ 2 x ≤ 2 Answer Now
5) Solve 26p - 20 > 14p + 64 o -14p -14p 12p – 20 > 64 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 20 12p > 84 12 12 p > 7 26(8) – 20 = 14(8) + 64 Subtract 14p from both sides Add 20 to both sides Divide both sides by 12 Check your answer Graph the solution o 7 8 6
