Solving/interpreting linear inequalities in one variable

16 - 4a > 8

• a < -2

• a > -2

• a < 2

• a > 2

-7 + 10z > -27

• z < -2

• 2 > z

• z > -2

• z > -34

find the solution: 7.4 > c + 3.9

• c < 3.11

• c < 11.3

• c < 2.5

• c < 3.5

x + 5 > 15

What needs to be done first?

• Subtract 5 from both sides

• Multiply both sides by 5

• Add 5 to both sides

• Divide both sides by 5

Solve the following inequality: 
3x + 4 > 13 

• x > 1 
• x > 3 
• x = 3 
• x < 5 

Solve.

• x is greater than -28

• x is greater than 28

• x is greater than -14

• x is greater than 14
