Back

'≥' means 'greater than or equal to'.

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean?

Back

'≤' means 'less than or equal to'.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality 5 + n < 12?

Back

n < 7.

Front

How do you represent the inequality x > 3 on a number line?

Back

Draw an open dot at 3 and shade to the right.

Front

What does 'at most' mean in terms of inequalities?

Back

'At most' means the value can be less than or equal to a certain number, represented by ≤.

Front

What does 'no more than' indicate in an inequality?

Back

'No more than' indicates a maximum value, represented by ≤.

Front

When graphing the inequality x < 4, what type of dot is used?

Back

An open dot is used for x < 4.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality 30 + n ≥ 50?

Back

n ≥ 20.

Front

How do you solve the inequality 2x - 3 < 7?

Back

Add 3 to both sides: 2x < 10, then divide by 2: x < 5.
