What is a two-step inequality?

Back

A two-step inequality is an inequality that requires two operations to isolate the variable. It often involves addition or subtraction followed by multiplication or division.

How do you solve the inequality 77 ≤ 5 + 8n?

Back

First, subtract 5 from both sides: 77 - 5 ≤ 8n, which simplifies to 72 ≤ 8n. Then, divide both sides by 8: 9 ≤ n or n ≥ 9.

What does the symbol '≤' mean in an inequality?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'. It indicates that the value on the left can be either less than or equal to the value on the right.

Solve the inequality 2 - 3x ≤ 20.

Back

Subtract 2 from both sides: -3x ≤ 18. Then, divide by -3 (remember to flip the inequality): x ≥ -6.

How do you graph the solution of an inequality?

Back

To graph an inequality, draw a number line, place a dot on the number that is the solution, and use an open circle for '>' or '<' and a closed circle for '≥' or '≤'. Shade the appropriate side of the number line.
