Inequalities • The solutions include more than one number • Ex: 2 < x ;values that x could be include 3, 7, 45… • All of the rules for solving equations apply to inequalities, with one added: • If you multiply or divide by a NEGATIVE you must FLIP the sign. (< becomes > and > becomes <) • When graphing on a number line: • Open dot for < or > • Closed (solid) dot for ≤ or ≥ • The shading should be easy to see (a slightly elevated line is ok) --- see examples
Solving Inequalities ALGEBRA 2 LESSON 1-4 Solve –2x < 3(x – 5). Graph the solution. –2x < 3(x – 5) –2x < 3x – 15 Distributive Property –5x < –15 Subtract 3x from both sides. x > 3 Divide each side by –5 and reverse the inequality.
Try These Problems Solve each inequality. Graph the solution. • 3x – 6 < 27 • 3x < 33 x < 11 • 12 ≥ 2(3n + 1) + 22 • 12 ≥ 6n + 2 + 2212 ≥ 6n + 24-12 ≥ 6n-2 ≥ n
0 Solve 7x≥ 7(2 + x). Graph the solution. 7x≥ 7(2 + x) 7x≥ 14 + 7x Distributive Property 0 ≥ 14Subtract 7x from both sides. The last inequality is always false, so 7x≥ 7(2 + x) is always false. It has no solution.

> > > > – – – – Relate: $2000 + 4% of sales $5000 Define: Let x = sales (in dollars). Write: 2000 + 0.04x 5000 0.04x 3000 Subtract 2000 from each side. x 75,000 Divide each side by 0.04. Solving Inequalities A real estate agent earns a salary of $2000 per month plus 4% of the sales. What must the sales be if the salesperson is to have a monthly income of at least $5000? The sales must be greater than or equal to $75,000.
Try This Problem A salesperson earns a salary of $700 per month plus 2% of the sales. What must the sales be if the salesperson is to have a monthly income of at least $1800? 700 + .02x ≥ 1800 .02x ≥ 1100 x ≥ 55000 The sales must be at least $55,000.
Compound Inequalities • Compound Inequality – a pair of inequalities joined by and or or • Ex: -1 < x and x ≤ 3 which can be written as -1 < x ≤ 3 • x < -1 or x ≥ 3 • For and statements the value must satisfy both inequalities • For or statements the value must satisfy one of the inequalities
And Inequalities • Graph the solution of 3x – 1 > -28 and 2x + 7 < 19. 3x > -27 and 2x < 12 x > -9 and x < 6 • Graph the solution of -8 < 3x + 1 <19 -9 < 3x < 18 -3 < x < 6
