Multi-Step Inequalities and Variables on Both Sides

Front

What is a multi-step inequality?

Back

A multi-step inequality is an inequality that requires more than one step to solve, often involving combining like terms, distributing, and isolating the variable.

Front

How do you solve an inequality with variables on both sides?

Back

To solve an inequality with variables on both sides, first, move all variable terms to one side and constant terms to the other side, then isolate the variable.

How do you check if your solution to an inequality is correct?

Back

You can check by substituting a value from the solution set back into the original inequality to see if it holds true.
