Chapter 5 Solving Linear Inequalities
Are the number of students playing volleyball more or less than the number in track and field? • How would you write this as a mathematical sentence? • Suppose 1200 schools added both sports would this change the situation? • Can we show this mathematically? Volleyball < Track & Field 13,426< 14,587 13,426 +1200 < 14,587+1200 14,626 < 15,287

Solving Inequalities • Solve S – 12 > 65, then Graph on a number line S – 12 > 65 • Determine what answer will look like • Eliminate Grouping Symbols • Eliminate Fractions • Add or subtract to isolate variable • Divide by Coefficient • Check solution +12 +12 S > 77 • 77
Solving Inequalities • Solve 12≥ y - 9 , then graph on a number line 12≥ y - 9 • Determine what answer will look like • Eliminate Grouping Symbols • Eliminate Fractions • Add or subtract to isolate variable • Divide by Coefficient • Check solution +9 21≥ y • 21
Solving Inequalities • Solve 5p + 7 > 6p, then graph on a number line • Determine what answer will look like • Eliminate Grouping Symbols • Eliminate Fractions • Add or subtract to isolate variable • Divide by Coefficient • Check solution 5p + 7 > 6p -5p -5p 7 > p p < 7 • 7
Write an inequality • Four times a number is no more than three times that number plus eight. • 4x 3x + 8 • Seven times a number is greater than six times that number minus 2. • 7x > 6x -2 • A number decreased by 8 is at most 14. • X – 8 14 • A number plus 7 is greater than 2 • X + 7 >2
