Practice Flashcard ONE STEP INEQUALITY

Front

What is a one-step inequality?

Back

A one-step inequality is an inequality that can be solved in a single step, typically involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean?

Back

The symbol '≥' means 'greater than or equal to'. It indicates that a number can be either greater than or equal to another number.

Front

What does the symbol '>' mean?

Back

The symbol '>' means 'greater than'. It indicates that one number is larger than another.

Front

What does the symbol '<' mean?

Back

The symbol '<' means 'less than'. It indicates that one number is smaller than another.

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'. It indicates that a number can be either less than or equal to another number.

Front

How do you represent the solution to the inequality 5 ≥ x on a number line?

Back

You would color in all numbers to the left of 5, including 5 itself, indicating that x can be any number less than or equal to 5.

Front

What are two solutions to the inequality x < 8?

Back

Any numbers less than 8, such as 7.9 and 0.8, are valid solutions.

Front

How do you solve the inequality 10 ≥ x - 3?

Back

Add 3 to both sides to get 13 ≥ x, which can be rewritten as x ≤ 13.

Front

What is the solution set for the inequality x > 3?

Back

The solution set includes all numbers greater than 3, such as 4, 5, and so on.

Front

What does it mean if a circle is colored in on a number line graph?

Back

A colored-in circle indicates that the number is included in the solution set (i.e., the inequality is 'greater than or equal to' or 'less than or equal to').
