Linear Inequalities
Solving One-Step Linear
Inequalities
What’s an inequality?
• Is a range of values,
rather than ONE set number
• An algebraic relation showing that a
quantity is greater than or less than
another quantity.

Did you notice,
Some of the dots were solid
and some were open?

Why do you think that is?
If the symbol is > or < then dot is open because it can not be
equal.
If the symbol is  or  then the dot is solid, because it can be
that point too.
Write and Graph a Linear
Inequality
Sue ran a 2-K race in 8 minutes. Write an
inequality to describe the average speeds of
runners who were faster than Sue. Graph the
inequality.

Solving an Inequality
Solving a linear inequality in one variable is much
like solving a linear equation in one variable.
Isolate the variable on one side using inverse
operations.
Add the same number to EACH side.
x – 3 < 5
Solve using addition:

x < 8
Solving Using Subtraction
Subtract the same number from EACH side.

THE TRAP…..
When you multiply or divide each side
of an inequality by a negative number,
you must reverse the inequality symbol
to maintain a true statement.
Solving using Multiplication
Multiply each side by the same positive number.
