Solving Inequalities Error Analysis

Solving linear inequalities is very similar to solving equations, but there is one minor difference. See if you can figure it out below: Organize these options into true or false.

Groups:

(a) True

,

(b) False

• Divide both sides by -2.

• Add 3 to both sides.

• Multiply both sides by -3.

• Multiply both sides by 3.

• Subtract 3 from both sides.

• Divide both sides by 2.

Match the following - Property of Inequality

• Addition property of inequality

• If a > b,

  then b < a.

• Negative property of inequality

• If a > b,

  then a - c > b - c.

• Subtraction property of inequality

• If a > b and b > c,

  then a > c.

• Transitive property of inequality

• If a > b,

  then a + c > b + c.

• Symmetric property of inequality

• If a > b,

  then –a < – b.
