Solving Inequalities

In this video, we are going to learn how to solve linear inequalities with variables on both sides of the inequality sign, using the distributive property, adding like terms, moving the variables over and then adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. We focus on when we need to flip the inequality sign.
  • We will go over why we need to flip the inequality sign when we multiply or divide by a negative number
  • We list the steps in solving inequalities
  • We practice solving an inequality where we have to flip the inequality sign
  • We teach how to determine, before we even start, whether we will flip the inequality
  • We go through another example two ways, where we show we get the same answer

Now it's your turn!
