Ex. 1 X-3

S1: S1 Solve for variable S2: S2 Draw a number line.

Ex. 1 X-3

S1: S1 Solve for variable S2: S2 Draw a number line with zero marked.

Ex. 1 X-3

S1: S1 Solve for variable S2: S2 Draw a number line with zero marked. Place a point at your answer.

Done!!!!There are two parts to your answer. The inequality and the graph

Have these steps written in your notes.

Ex 2 y > -1

*Its already solved for your variable, so start by drawing a number line and marking zero and your answer.

Ex 2 y > -1

-1

*Its already solved for your variable, so start by drawing a number line and marking zero and your answer. NEXT, decide
Open or Shaded circle at your answer. Ray to the right or the left.

Ex 2 y > -1

-1

*Its already solved for your variable, so start by drawing a number line and marking zero and your answer. NEXT, decide
Open or Shaded circle at your answer. Ray to the right or the left.

Answercheck your inequality and then your graph.

Basically, three steps - SOLVE - OPEN OR CLOSED - RIGHT OR LEFT RAY.

Ex. 3 5 + m -3

Solve.

Ex. 3 5 + m -3 -5 -5 m -8

Solve.

Ex. 3 5 + m -3 -5 -5 m -8

Solve.
Never graph before solving.

Open or Shaded?
Is the answer itself included in the solutionis -8 -8?

Right or Left Ray?


Are the other numbers that make this inequality true to the left or right?

-8

Ex. 3 5 + m -3 -5 -5 m -8

Solve.
Never graph before solving. Shadedbecause of the equal sign it is INCLUDED in the answer. Rightbecause it is greater than, all larger numbers are to the right.

-8

*Just one extra step at the beginning

Ex 4. -5>x

IMPORTANT RULE: Always you need to have the variable on the left before you graphyou may have to move it to do this. ..the the inequality must always POINT to the same term. term

Ex 4. -5>x

Rewrite by putting the x on the left and the -5 on the right.

IMPORTANT RULE: Always you need to have the variable on the left before you graphyou may have to move it to do this. ..the the inequality must always POINT to the same term. term

Ex 4. -5>x x -5

Rewrite by putting the x on the left and the -5 on the right. Then check to see which term the inequality is POINTING to.it should still point to x. So write in the inequality that points to x.

IMPORTANT RULE: Always you need to have the variable on the left before you graphyou may have to move it to do this. ..the the inequality must always POINT to the same term. term

Ex 4. -5>x x < -5 NOW YOU CAN GRAPH

Rewrite by putting the x on the left and the 5 on the right. Then check to see which term the inequality is POINTING to.it should still point to x. So write in the inequality that points to x.

IMPORTANT RULE: Always you need to have the variable on the left before you graphyou may have to move it to do this. ..the the inequality must always POINT to the same term. term

Ex. 5 4>7+k

Rewrite then solve or Solve then rewrite Just do bothwhen ever the variable is on the right hand side when you begin the problem, in whatever order you prefer!!!

Ex. 6. -7 t 3

JUST practice solvingdo not graph for now

Ex. 5 4>7+k 7+k <4 -7 -7 k < -3 Ex. 6. -7 t 3 +3 +3 -4 t t -4

Rewrite then solve or Solve then rewrite Just do bothwhen ever the variable is on the right hand side when you begin the problem.
