An inequalitycompares two expressions using <, >, , or . is less than Fewer than, below is greater than More than, above is less than or equal to At most, no more than is greater than or equal to At least, no less than An inequality that contains a variable is an algebraic inequality.
A solution of an inequality is any value of the variable that makes the inequality true. All of the solutions of an inequality are called the solution set. You can graph the solution set on a number line. The symbols < and > indicate an open circle.
This open circle shows that 5 is not a solution. a > 5 The symbols ≤ and ≥ indicate a closed circle. This closed circle shows that 3 is a solution. b ≤ 3
Draw a closed circle at –2 and all values of z greater than -2 . So shade to the right of –2 . 1 2 1 2 1 2 Additional Example 3: Graphing Inequalities Graph each inequality. A. –1> y Draw an open circle at –1. The solutions are all values of y less than –1, so shade the line to the left of –1. –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 12 B. z ≥ –2 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3

When you solved two-step equations, you used the order of operations in reverse to isolate the variable. You can use the same process when solving two-step inequalities.
When you multiply (or divide) both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol to make the statement true.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 12 4x > 4 4 Example 1: Solving Two-Step Inequalities Solve and graph. 4x + 1 > 13 4x + 1 > 13 – 1– 1Since 1 is added to 4x, subtract 1 from both sides. 4x > 12 Since x is multiplied by 4, divide both sides by 4. x > 3
Example 1 Continued Check According to the graph 4 should be a solution and 2 should not be a solution. x > 3 x > 3 Substitute 4 for x. Substitute 2 for x. ? ? 4 > 3 2 > 3 So 4 is a solution. So 2 is not a solution.

Example 6 Multiple Choice Practice x 15 x 15 x 25 x 25 ≤ ≥ ≤ ≥ SOLUTION To find your profit, subtract the total costs from the total ticket sales. This amount should equal or exceed the minimum desired profit of $200. You are organizing a bowling night for charity. Each ticket costs $10 and includes shoe rental. Door prizes cost you $50. Which inequality describes the possible numbers x of people who need to attend for you to make a profit of at least $200?
Example 6 Multiple Choice Practice – Write an inequality. 10x 50 200 ≥ 10x x 250 25 ≥ ≥ ANSWER The correct answer is D. +50 +50 Add 50 to each side. Divide each side by 10. 10 10

Guided Practice 4. WHAT IF? In Example 3, how many people need to attend for you to make a profit of at least $250? x ANSWER 30 people ≥ for Examples 1, 2, and 3
Example 8: School Application A school’s Spanish club is selling bumper stickers. They bought 100 bumper stickers for $55, and they have to give the company 15 cents for every sticker sold. If they plan to sell each bumper sticker for $1.25, how many do they have to sell to make a profit? In order for the Spanish club to make a profit, the revenue must be greater than the cost. 1.25x > 55 + 0.15x
55 > 1.10x 1.10 1.10 Example 8 Continued 1.25x > 55 + 0.15x Subtract 0.15x from both sides. – 0.15x– 0.15x 1.10x > 55 Divide both sides by 1.10. x > 50 The Spanish club must sell more than 50 bumper stickers to make a profit.
Check It Out! Example 9 A school’s French club is selling bumper stickers. They bought 200 bumper stickers for $45, and they have to give the company 25 cents for every sticker sold. If they plan to sell each bumper sticker for $2.50, how many do they have to sell to make a profit? In order for the French club to make a profit, the revenue must be greater than the cost. 2.5x > 45 + 0.25x
45 > 2.25x 2.25 2.25 Check It Out! Example 9 Continued 2.5x > 45 + 0.25x Subtract 0.25x from both sides. – 0.25x– 0.25x 2.25x > 45 Divide both sides by 2.25. x > 20 The French club must sell more than 20 bumper stickers to make a profit.
