1. Chapter2 2-3 Solving inequalities by Multiplying or dividing

2. Objectives Solve one-step inequalities by using multiplication. Solve one-step inequalities by using division.

3. How to solve inequalities? Remember, solving inequalities is similar to solving equations. To solve an inequality that contains multiplication or division, undo the operation by dividing or multiplying both sides of the inequality by the same number. The following rules show the properties of inequality for multiplying or dividing by a positive number. The rules for multiplying or dividing by a negative number appear later in this lesson.

4. Properties of inequalities

5. Example#1 Solve the inequality and graph the solutions. 7x > –42 Solution:

6. Example#2 Solve the inequality and graph the solutions. Solution:

7. Example#3 Solve the inequality and graph the solutions. Solution:

8. Example#4 Solve the inequality and graph the solutions. 4k > 24

9. Student guided practice Turn to your book page 115 and do problems1-8

10. What can we do when we multiply by a negative? If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the resulting inequality is not a true statement. You need to reverse the inequality symbol to make the statement true. This means there is another set of properties of inequality for multiplying or dividing by a negative number.
