1Solving & Graphing One-Step Inequalities
2Strategy Model — step by step
- 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.

1 MULTIPLE CHOICE
Final gate — describe the solution set. The vault rule is x > 7. What does the solution set mean?
- AAll numbers greater than 7, like 8, 9, 10, … (but NOT 7 itself)
- BOnly the number 7
- CAll numbers less than 7
- DEvery number, including 7

2 MULTIPLE CHOICE
Solve: x − 4 < 11
- Ax < 15
- Bx < 7
- Cx > 15
- Dx = 15
✏️ Workspace & Solution Steps -
3 MULTIPLE CHOICE
Is x = 5 a solution to x + 4 > 12?
- ANo, because 5 + 4 = 9, and 9 is not greater than 12
- BYes, because 5 + 4 = 9
- CYes, because 5 > 4
- DNo, because 5 < 12
✏️ Workspace & Solution Steps -
4 MULTIPLE CHOICE
Clue 1: Which value is a solution of x > 7?
- A9
- B7
- C5
- D3
✏️ Workspace & Solution Steps -
5 MULTIPLE CHOICE
Clue 2: Is 5 a solution of x ≤ 5?
- AYes, because 5 ≤ 5 is true
- BNo, because 5 is not less than 5
- CNo, because ≤ means only smaller numbers
- DYes, but only because 5 is odd
