This is a free lesson from our course in Algebra I
This lesson explains how to solve inequalities. The basic rule for solving a given inequality
is similar to that for solving equations -- do
the same operation to both sides of inequality. The lesson explains this in
detail with examples. Note: If you multiply or divide an inequality on both sides
by a negative number, then you need to flip the direction of
the inequality symbol. The solution to an inequality is a value that makes the inequality true. You can solve inequalities in the same way you can solve equations, by following these rules. • You may add any positive or negative number to both sides of an inequality. • You may multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by any positive number. If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, reverse the direction of the inequality sign.
