LINEAR INEQUALITIES IN ONE VARIABLE

Most of the rules for solving linear inequalities in one variable are similar to those for solving a linear equation in one variable with exception of the rules on  multiplication and division by the negative numbers which reverse the sense of the inequality

EXAMPLE: Find the solution set of each of the following inequalities and represent them graphically

(a) 2x – 3 < x + 7 (b) 3x  + 4 > 1 – 2x

Solution

  1. 2x – 3 < x + 7
  2. .... View More
