1Solving & Graphing One-Step Inequalities
2The Structural Procedure
- Isolate the variable using inverse operations on both sides (same as equations)
- Write the simplified inequality with the variable on the left (e.g. x > 5)
- Graph the solution set on a number line with open/closed circle and arrow shading
3Mathematical Word Bank
- Solve and Graph Inequalities (Resolver y representar desigualdades) — Isolate the variable, then show the complete solution set on a number line.
- Solve (Resolver) — To find the number that makes it true.
- Graph (Graficar) — To show answers on a number line with circles and shading.
- Solution (Solución) — A number that makes the equation or inequality true.
- Substitute (Sustituir) — To put a number in place of a letter.
- Solution set (Conjunto solución) — All the numbers that make the inequality true.
4Watch out
- A common mistake in Solve and Graph Inequalities is shading the number line in the wrong direction after solving. For example, a student solves x + 4 > 10 correctly to get x > 6, but then shades LEFT toward smaller numbers instead of RIGHT toward greater numbers. The shading direction always matches the solved symbol, not the original problem: '>' and '≥' shade right (greater numbers), '<' and '≤' shade left (smaller numbers) — check this AFTER you solve, not before. To catch this mistake, substitute one shaded value and one unshaded value back into the original inequality: the shaded value should make it true, and the unshaded value should make it false.
