5 3 Multi Step Inequalities
Megan Tompkins
Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
When solving multi-step inequalities, remember that if you divide or multiply by a negative number, you must flip the inequality sign.
- •
When solving inequalities with parentheses, use the distributive property to eliminate the parentheses, then combine like terms before isolating the variable.
- •
When solving multi-step inequalities, special cases can occur where the solution is either no solution or all real numbers.
