How do you solve the inequality 4x ≤ x?

Back

To solve 4x ≤ x, subtract x from both sides to get 3x ≤ 0, then divide by 3 to find x ≤ 0.

Front

What is the first step in solving the inequality |x + 4| - 8 > 2?

Back

The first step is to add 8 to both sides, resulting in |x + 4| > 10.

Front

What does the absolute value of a number represent?

Back

The absolute value of a number represents its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction.

What is the process for solving compound inequalities?

Back

To solve compound inequalities, solve each part separately and then combine the solutions, ensuring to consider the logical connections (AND/OR) between them.

Front

What does it mean to graph an inequality on a number line?

Back

Graphing an inequality on a number line involves shading the region that represents all possible solutions and using open or closed circles to indicate whether endpoints are included.
