3.3 Solving Inequalities Using: × and ÷ Inequality: A mathematical sentence that uses and inequality symbol (, ≤, ≥) to compare the values of two expressions. Solution of an Inequality: Any number that makes the inequality true.

GOAL:
3
Let a, b, and c be real numbers and c > 0 (positive). MULTIPLICATION: ( x ) If a > b, Then ac > bc Ex: if 2 > -1 then 2(3) > -1(3) 6 > -3 If a < b, Then ac < bc Ex: if -4 < -2 then -4(3) < -1(3) -12 < -3
4
We can use these properties to solve for variables. MULTIPLICATION:
5
SOLUTION: To find the solution we must isolate the variable:

SOLUTION: To find the solution we must isolate the variable:
8
Let a, b, and c be real numbers and c < 0 (negative). MULTIPLICATION: ( x ) If a > b, Then ac < bc sign switches Ex: if 2 > -1 then 2(-3) < -1(-3) -6 < 3 If a bc sign switches Ex: if -4 -1(-3) 12 > 3

Once again, we can use these properties to solve for variables.

REMEMBER: Always isolate variables and then graph. x < -1 x > 1 x ≤ 0 x ≥ 2
