Solving and Graphing Inequalities

So... what is an inequality? That's definitely not a term that we use everyday!

Let's break this word down, so that we really understand it! The term equality means that something is equal (=). Our previous unit on solving equations dealt with equalities.

So... let's think about what the prefix in means in inequality. The prefix in means "not". So, an inequality means "not equal". Can you think of other signs in math that you've used besides an equals sign?

Yes, if something is not equal, then it is greater than (>) or less than (<). Those are the symbols that we are going to be using in this unit of Solving and Graphing Inequalities!
