Linear Inequalities

Upon completing this lesson, the student should be able to use the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division properties of equality to solve linear inequalities, write the answer to an inequality using interval notation and draw a graph to give a visual answer to an inequality problem.

The lesson begins with explanations of inequality signs and interval notation and then moves on to demonstrate addition/subtraction and multiplication/division properties of equality. The site demonstrates a strategy for solving linear inequalities and presents three problems for students to practice what they have learned.

There is also a link to a previous tutorial which covers solving linear equations of one variable for students who need the review.
