2. Inequalities
7. EE.4 Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.
7. EE.4a. Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach.
7. EE.4b. Solve word problems leading to inequalities of the form px + q > r or px + q < r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Graph the solution set of the inequality and interpret it in the context of the problem.

3. Word Phrases Meaning Symbol
An inequality states that two quantities
either are not equal or may not be
equal. An inequality uses one of the
following symbols: ≥ ≤

4. An inequality may have more than one solution
An inequality may have more than one solution. Together, all of the solutions are called the solution set.

5. Bill must roll between a 2 and a 4 to win the dice game
4< x > 2 2 < x < 4
2 > x > 4 4 < x > 2

6. a > 5 a ≤ 3 This open circle shows that 5 is not a solution.
If the variable is “greater than or equal to” or “less than or equal to” a number, that number is indicated with a closed circle.
This closed circle shows that 3 is a solution.
a ≤ 3
