Inequality: A mathematical sentence that compares the values of
two expressions using an inequality symbol.
Solution of an inequality: any number that makes the inequality
true.
Example: the solutions of the inequality x < 3, are all numbers
that are less than 3.

ALGEBRA 1 LESSON 3-1
Is each number a solution of x > 5?
a. –2
No, –2 > 5 is not true.
c. 25
b. 10
5
Yes, 10 > 5 is true.
3-1
Yes, 5 > 5 is true.

ALGEBRA 1 LESSON 3-1
Is each number a solution of 3 + 2x < 8?
a. –2
b. 3
3 + 2x < 8
3 + 2x < 8
3 + 2(–2) < 8
Substitute for x.
3 + 2(3) < 8
Substitute for x.
3–4<8
Simplify.
3+6<8
Simplify.
–1 < 8
Compare.
9<8
Compare.
–2 is a solution.
3 is not a solution.

Tip:
Always make sure the variable is on the left before you graph…..
Because……..
Your solutions……..
(are you ready???????)
Will always be……..
in the direction………
your inequality………
is pointing……
****This is why we always SWITCH and FLIP!!!
Graphing Inequalities
Since the solution of an inequality is not just one number, you can use a graph
to indicate all of the solutions.
Inequality
x<3
m > -2
Graph
*The open dot shows that 3 is
not a solution. Shade to the
left of 3.
*The closed dot shows that -2 is a
solution. Shade to the right of -2
*The closed dot shows that -1
is a solution. Shade to the left
of -1.
-1 > a
*switch (variable and number) and flip (inequality) first* will explain on next slide

b. Graph –3 ≥ g.
a. Graph d < 3.
The solutions of d < 3 are
all the points to the left of 3.
The solutions of –3 > g are
–3 and all the points to the
left of –3.

ALGEBRA 1 LESSON 3-1
Write an inequality for each graph.
x<2
Numbers less than 2 are graphed.
x < –3
Numbers less than or equal to –3 are graphed.
x > –2
Numbers greater than –2 are graphed.
1
x > 2
1
Numbers greater than or equal to
2
are graphed.

ALGEBRA 1 LESSON 3-1
Define a variable and write an inequality for each situation.
a. A speed that violates the
law when the speed limit is
55 miles per hour.
b. A job that pays at
least $500 a month.
Let v = an illegal speed.
Let p = pay per month.
The speed limit is 55,
so v > 55.
The job pays $500 or more,
so p > 500.
