One Step Inequalities

Front

What is an inequality?

Back

An inequality is a mathematical statement that compares two expressions using symbols like <, >, ≤, or ≥.

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'.

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean?

Back

The symbol '≥' means 'greater than or equal to'.

Front

How do you solve the inequality 3x ≤ -9?

Back

Divide both sides by 3: x ≤ -3.

Front

What is the solution set for the inequality 2x ≤ -10?

Back

x ≤ -5, which includes -12.

Front

How do you isolate 'n' in the inequality n - 12 ≥ 20?

Back

Add 12 to both sides: n ≥ 32.

Front

What is the solution for the inequality x - 5 > -7?

Back

Add 5 to both sides: x > -2.

Front

How do you solve the inequality p ÷ 4 > -5?

Back

Multiply both sides by 4: p > -20.

Front

What does it mean if a solution includes 'All of the above'?

Back

It means that all listed options satisfy the inequality.

Front

What is the first step in solving one-step inequalities?

Back

Identify the operation being performed on the variable and perform the inverse operation.
