What is an inequality?

Back

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

How do you solve a one-step inequality?

Back

To solve a one-step inequality, isolate the variable on one side by performing the same operation on both sides of the inequality.

What does it mean to graph an inequality?

Back

Graphing an inequality involves representing the solutions on a number line, using an open circle for < or > and a closed circle for ≤ or ≥.

What is the difference between strict and non-strict inequalities?

Back

Strict inequalities (<, >) do not include the endpoint, while non-strict inequalities (≤, ≥) do include the endpoint.

What is the first step in solving a two-step inequality?

Back

The first step is to isolate the term with the variable by performing the opposite operation of what is currently applied.
