One-Step Inequalities

True or False: Solving inequalities is like solving equations because inverse operations are done to isolate the variable.

• true

• false

Level 1

When do we switch the inequality symbol?

• when multiplying or dividing by a NEGATIVE

• when adding and subtracting a NEGATIVE

• we never switch the inequality

• When there is a negative in the problem

Level 3

Solve the inequality.

• x ≤ 6

• x ≥ 6

• x ≤ -6

• x ≥ -6

Solve

• z ≤ 1

• z > 9

• z ≤ 9

• z < 9

26 < p + 28

• p > -2

• p < -2

• p < 54

• p > 54

Level 3
