Learning Targets

  • I can graph the solution to an inequality in one variable.

  • I can solve one-variable inequalities and interpret the solutions in terms of the situation.

  • I understand that the solution to an inequality is a range of values (such as x>7) that make the inequality true.

1.

Rewrite the student learning goals in your own words.

If needed, you can use the number line to help them in reasoning about the inequalities.

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
2.

Write some solutions to the inequality y\leq9.2. Be prepared to explain what makes a value a solution to this inequality.

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
3.

Write one solution to the inequality 7(3-x)>14. Explain your reasoning.

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
4.

How did you know that the value you chose is a solution?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
5.

What do you notice about all the points that are on the line?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
6.

On the number line, we can see that the solutions are values that are less than 1. All these values form the solution set to the inequality. Is there a way to write the solution set concisely, without using the number line and without writing out all the numbers less than 1?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
7.

Does the solution set have anything to do with the solution to the equation 7(3-x)=14?

Asemmisa {{asɛmmisaAhyɛnsode}}
8.

Why does the solution set to the inequality 7(3-x)>14 involve numbers less than 1?

A teacher is choosing between two options for a class field trip to an orchard.

  • At Orchard A, admission costs $9 per person and 3 chaperones are required.

  • At Orchard B, the cost is $10 per person, but only 1 chaperone is required.

  • At each orchard, the same price applies to both chaperones and students.

In this situation, what does the equation 9(n+3)=10(n+1) mean?

What does the solution to the inequality 9(n+3)<10(n+1) tell us?

To help pay for his tuition, a college student plans to work in the evenings and on weekends. He has been offered two part-time jobs: working in the guest-services department at a hotel and waiting tables at a popular restaurant.

  • The job at the hotel pays $18 an hour and offers $33 in transportation allowance per month.

  • The job at the restaurant pays $7.50 an hour plus tips. The entire waitstaff typically collects about $50 in tips each hour. Tips are divided equally among the 4 waitstaff members who share a shift.

The equation 7.50h+\frac{50}{4}h=18h+33 represents a possible constraint about a situation.

Solve the equation and check your solution.

Here is a graph on a number line. Put a scale on the number line so that the point marked with a circle represents the solution to the equation.

Does one job pay better if the student works fewer hours than the solution you found earlier? If so, which job?

Does one job pay better if the student works more hours than the solution you found earlier? If so, which job?

Here are two inequalities and two graphs that represent the solutions to the inequalities. Match each inequality with a graph that shows its solution.
