What does translating points on a number line have to do with solving inequalities? Young mathematicians first learn about translations of points on a number line, and then use this information to solve linear inequalities in one variable.

Do properties of equations hold true for inequalities? Teach solving inequalities through the theme of properties. Your class discovers that the multiplication property of equality doesn't hold true for inequalities when multiplying by a...

What does solving an inequality have in common with solving an equation? Almost everything! A math resource focuses on the one exception. The examples lead learners through the steps of solving an equality when multiplying or...

Investigate complex problem situations by applying inequalities. Building from concepts explored in the previous lesson plan, learners read word problems and develop inequalities to represent the situation. They then solve the...

Students review solving equations. They solve an inequality and discuss how to graph it. Students work together on one inequality and then graph two on their own. This lesson contains links to a PowerPoint and a worksheet.

Not all resources are created equal — and your class benefits! Scholars learn how to solve one-step inequalities using inverse operations. They complete an activity matching inequalities to their solutions.

The concept of absolute value can be difficult for learners to grasp. Reinforce their understanding of a basic absolute value expression and connect it to solving equations and inequalities. Scholars write two equations/inequalities to...

This is a comprehensive lesson on creating and solving equations and systems of equations and inequalities. Problems range from basic linear equations to more complex systems of equations and inequalities based on a real-world examples....

Challenge your students' algebra skills with this activity, which presents students with several types of problem sets, including solving inequalities, graphing, word problems, and a set of algebra problems that may or may not require...

English and math have more in common than you think. Make a connection between a compound sentence and a compound inequality with an activity that teaches learners the difference between an "and" and "or" inequality through solutions...

In this solving inequalities worksheet, students solve inequalities with variables on both sides. They state the solution set of the inequality. This two-page worksheet contains 30 problems.

In this inequalities worksheet, learners determine the solution set to given inequalities. Inequality problems include variables on both sides as well as real numbers. This two-page worksheet contains 30 problems.

Guide your class through the intricacies of solving compound inequalities with a resource that compares solutions of an equation, less than inequality, and greater than inequality. Once pupils understand the differences, the...

Don't throw away those transparency sheets just yet! Young scholars first review inequalities on a number line, then learn about graphing inequalities in the coordinate plane. Finally, they use overhead transparencies to create systems...

Which number is bigger? Using a variety of activity sheets, this unit starts with the basics of inequalities and progresses through solving compound linear inequalities. Problems cover the range of inequalities including inequality word...

Is the application of systems of equations giving your class headaches? Use this resource to build on your pupils' logic to lead them to building equations and using algebraic methods. The lesson begins with an exploration of...

School subjects connect when your young scholars use math to edit English. Math allows you to convert an entire paragraph into a simple equation or inequality. Examples encourage learners to write expressions, equations, and inequalities...

Graph and solve linear equations in two variables. The class relates the concepts of linear equations to the real world.

Through exploration of linear programming through graphs and equations of inequalities, students relate linear programming to real life scenarios, such as business. Graphing and shading is also part of this exercise.

Activate the strengths of your visual learners using an informative lesson. In the 15th installment of the series of 28, pupils graph their solutions on number lines to create a visual representation of solutions. Problems presented as...

There's more than one way to solve an equation — three, actually. Scholars learn how to solve simple linear equations in one variable using three different methods, which include using balance scales, using decomposition (e.g., turning...

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.

This lesson will provide students with an introduction to solving equations and inequalities numerically (using a table), graphically, and algebraically. they devise a table that would produce information about the number of hot dogs...

Compare graphing an inequality in one variable on a number line to graphing an inequality in two variables on a coordinate plane. Young mathematicians work on a puzzle matching inequalities and their solutions. They then complete a...
