Understanding One-Step Addition Inequalities

This video tutorial by Mr. J covers how to solve and graph one-step addition inequalities. It explains the process of isolating the variable using inverse operations, similar to solving equations. The video provides two examples: solving x + 12 > 18 and a + 9 ≤ 3, demonstrating how to graph the solutions on a number line. The tutorial emphasizes checking solutions to ensure correctness and concludes with a recap of the key steps involved in solving and graphing inequalities.

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

• Divide both sides by the same number

• Isolate the variable using inverse operations

• Multiply both sides by the same number

• Add the same number to both sides
