1. WARM-UP 1.How can you find the pattern in an arithmetic sequence? 108, 36, 12,… 2. What type of sequence is this? 3. Write an algebraic expression for this sequence? 4. What would the next term in the sequence be?

2. INEQUALITIES WHO IN THE WORLD IS PAC-MAN?

3. INEQUALITIES

4. PAC-MAN AND INEQUALITIES Solving inequalities indicates that there is more than one answer for x. x > 6, reads that x could be any number greater than 6, but it could not be 6. We can graph this on the number line.

5. GRAPHING > AND < >, < These signs show that x is greater than or less than a number. But the answer could not be that number. We would place an open circle above the number, which indicates that that number is not a possible solution

6. EXAMPLES x > 6 x < -3

9. SOLVING INEQUALITIES Solving Inequalities is the same as solving equations Distribute Combine Like Terms SADMEP THE ONLY DIFFERENCE When you multiply or divide the variable by a negative number, you must flip it Flip it good
