What does a closed circle mean when graphing an inequality?

Back

A closed circle indicates that the number is included in the solution set.

Front

What does an open circle mean when graphing an inequality?

Back

An open circle indicates that the number is not included in the solution set.

What is the solution to the inequality -5(w - 4) < -5w - 15?

Back

There are no solutions to this inequality.

What is the first step in solving the inequality 4h < 8?

Back

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate h, resulting in h < 2.

Front

What does it mean if an inequality has no solutions?

Back

It means there are no values that satisfy the inequality.
