Solving Inequalities Quiz

What happens to an inequality when you add the same number to both sides?

• The inequality becomes false.

• The inequality remains true.

• The inequality sign reverses.

• The inequality becomes an equation.

If y + 5 > 11, what is the value of y?

• y > 11

• y = 6

• With a dashed line

• With a shaded circle

• With an open circle

In the context of inequalities, what does an open circle on a number line indicate?

• The number is included in the solution.

• The number is not included in the solution.

• The inequality is an equation.

• The inequality is false.
