Understanding One-Step Subtraction Inequalities

In this video, Mr. J explains how to solve and graph one-step subtraction inequalities. The process involves isolating the variable using inverse operations, similar to solving equations. Two examples are provided: solving g - 7 ≤ 2 and -15 > y - 11. Each example includes a detailed solution and graphing on a number line. The video concludes with a summary of the key steps and concepts.

What is the first step in solving a one-step subtraction inequality?

• Add the same number to both sides

• Divide both sides by the same number

• Subtract the same number from both sides

• Multiply both sides by the same number
