Real-world math applications make math come to life. Pupils solve inequalities and equations. They relate the concepts of inequalities to a real-world problem and use the computer to identify the equations on a graph.
This is a nice learning exercise on solving one variable and compound inequalities. Learners solve inequalities and graph the solution on a number line. The two page learning exercise contains explanation and sixteen practice problems.
Sal expounds on the concept of solving and graphing one-step inequalities. He solves a second practice problem. This time he solves for c in the equation -5c less than or equal to 15. If shown in conjunction with Khan's other inequality video, they would make a great lesson on inequalities.
In this solving one-step inequalities learning exercise, learners solve five multiple choice inequalities. They solve each inequality by adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing to isolate the variable. Pupils match a graph of an inequality with its' correct inequality.
Middle schoolers solve five inequalities in multiple choice format. They solve inequalities and express their solutions in set notation and on a number line.
Practice problems are great ways to engage your charges with a new concept. Sal solves for x+8 less than or equal to 6 and then graphs the solution. First, he subtracts 8 from both sides, and then he subtracts 6. Next, he draws a number line to plot his answer. This is a very simple example and very clearly demonstrated, it would be appropriate for those who are new to inequalities.
Middle schoolers solve inequalities in one variable and graph the solutions on a number line. The one page activity contains five multiple choice questions and is self checking.
Middle and high schoolers investigate how to solve inequalities. The lesson has a good guide for taking pupils through a direct instruction of the concept. You can use counting tiles in order to help kinesthetic learners.
Use this writing and solving equations and inequalities learning exercise to have your learners solve four multiple choice problems and two word problems. Additionally, pupils graph one inequality solution and explain in words the steps they used to solve the problem.
For this math worksheet, students solve the word problems using inequalities. They translate the words into the correct expressions.
