  1. 1.5 Solving Linear Inequalities

  2. Inequality Symbols Less than Not equal to Less than or equal to Greater than or equal to Greater than

  3. Inequality with one variable to the first power. for example: 2x-3<8 • A solution is a value of the variable that makes the inequality true. x could equal -3, 0, 1, etc. Linear Inequality

  4. Add/subtract the same number on each side of an inequality • Multiply/divide by the same positive number on each side of an inequality • If you multiply or divide by a negative number, you MUSTflip the inequality sign! Transformations for Inequalities

  5. Ex: Solve the inequality. 2x-3<8 +3 +3 2x<11 2 2 x< Flip the sign after dividing by the -3!

  6. Remember: < and > signs will have an open dot o and signs will have a closed dot graph of graph of Graphing Linear Inequalities 4 5 6 7 -3 -2 -1 0

  7. Example: Solve and graph the solution. 6 7 8 9

  8. An inequality joined by “and” or “or”. Examples “and” “or” think between think oars on a boat Compound Inequality -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2

  9. -9 < t+4 < 10 -13 < t < 6 Think between! Example: Solve & graph. -13 6

  10. -6x+9 < 3 or -3x-8 > 13 -6x < -6 -3x > 21 x > 1 or x < -7 Flip signs Think oars Last example! Solve & graph. -7 1
