4.3 Multistep Inequalities with Variables on Both Sides

Front

What is a multistep inequality?

Back

A multistep 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.

What does it mean when an inequality has a 'greater than or equal to' symbol (≥)?

Back

It means that the value on the left side can be greater than or equal to the value on the right side.

Front

What does it mean when an inequality has a 'less than' symbol (<)?

Back

It means that the value on the left side must be strictly less than the value on the right side.
