Solving Inequalities with One or Two Variables

Student pages for this lesson are 235 – 240.

In Section 5.1, you developed many strategies for solving equations with one variable and systems of equations with two variables. But what if you want to solve an inequality or system of inequalities instead? Today you will explore how to use familiar strategies to find solutions for an inequality. As you work, the questions below can help focus team discussions:

What strategy should we use?

How can we know if this solution is correct?

How can we be sure we found all solutions?

5-54. In Lessons 5.1.1 and 5.1.2, you learned how to use the graph of a system to solve an

equation. How can the graphs of y = 2x2 + 5x ! 3 and y = x2 + 4x + 3 (shown at right) help you solve an inequality? Consider this as you answer the questions below. [ a: The x-coordinate for each point of intersection; x = !3 and x = 2 ; b: The graph of y = 2x

2+ 5x – 3 increases faster or substitute a number such as 0 or –2

for x in both equations, or the y-intercept of y = 2x2 + 5x ! 3 is –3 and the other is 3, etc. c: The solutions are the x-values of the points where the graph of y = 2x2 + 5x ! 3 intersects and dips below the graph of y = x2 + 4x + 3 ; there are infinite solutions; !3 " x " 2 . d and e: See number lines below right. e: x < !3!or!x > 2 ]

a. How are the solutions of 2x2 + 5x ! 3 = x2 + 4x + 3 represented on this graph? What are the solutions?

b. Obtain a Lesson 5.2.1 Resource Page from your teacher. On the resource page, label each graph with its equation and highlight each function with a different color. How did you decide which graph matches which function?

c. On the graph, identify the x-values for which 2x2 + 5x ! 3 " x2 + 4x + 3 . How did you locate the solutions? How many solutions are there? Find a way to describe all of the solutions.

d. How can these solutions be represented on a number line? Locate the number line labeled with 2x2 + 5x ! 3 " x2 + 4x + 3 below the graph on your resource page. Use a colored marker to highlight the solutions to the inequality on the number line.

e. What about the inequality2x2 + 5x ! 3 > x2 + 4x + 3? What are the solutions to this inequality? Represent your solutions algebraically and on a number line.

5-55. Now consider the inequality 2x ! 5 > 1 . [ a: Answers vary, x > 3 ; b: 3; c: See

number line far below right. x > 3 ]

a. List at least three solutions of this inequality.

b. What is the smallest number that will make this inequality true? If you cannot find the smallest number, which number is the largest that makes it not true? This number is a boundary .

c. Draw a number line like the one at right on your paper and mark the boundary point for 2x ! 5 > 1 . Is the point part of the solution of the inequality? If yes, fill in a point on the line; if not draw an open circle. On which side of the boundary do the solutions lie? Indicate the solutions by “bolding” the appropriate portion of the number line and representing the graph algebraically.

5-56. Consider the inequality 4 x +1 ! 2 > 6 . [ a: There are two boundaries: x = 1 and

x = !3 . Both should be unfilled. b: There are three regions to test; the solutions are x > 1 or x < !3 . See number line below right. ]

a. How many boundary points are there? What are they? Should they be marked with filled or unfilled circles? Make the appropriate markings on a number line.

b. Which portions of the number line contain the solutions? How many regions do you need to test? Represent the solutions algebraically and on a number line.

c. On the graph, identify the x-values for which 2x2 + 5x ! 3 " x2 + 4x + 3 . How did you locate the solutions? How many solutions are there? Find a way to describe all of the solutions.

d. How can these solutions be represented on a number line? Locate the number line labeled with 2x2 + 5x ! 3 " x2 + 4x + 3 below the graph on your resource page. Use a colored marker to highlight the solutions to the inequality on the number line.

e. What about the inequality2x2 + 5x ! 3 > x2 + 4x + 3? What are the solutions to this inequality? Represent your solutions algebraically and on a number line.

5-55. Now consider the inequality 2x ! 5 > 1 . [ a: Answers vary, x > 3 ; b: 3; c: See

number line far below right. x > 3 ]

a. List at least three solutions of this inequality.

b. What is the smallest number that will make this inequality true? If you cannot find the smallest number, which number is the largest that makes it not true? This number is a boundary .

c. Draw a number line like the one at right on your paper and mark the boundary point for 2x ! 5 > 1 . Is the point part of the solution of the inequality? If yes, fill in a point on the line; if not draw an open circle. On which side of the boundary do the solutions lie? Indicate the solutions by “bolding” the appropriate portion of the number line and representing the graph algebraically.

5-56. Consider the inequality 4 x +1 ! 2 > 6 . [ a: There are two boundaries: x = 1 and

x = !3 . Both should be unfilled. b: There are three regions to test; the solutions are x > 1 or x < !3 . See number line below right. ]

a. How many boundary points are there? What are they? Should they be marked with filled or unfilled circles? Make the appropriate markings on a number line.

b. Which portions of the number line contain the solutions? How many regions do you need to test? Represent the solutions algebraically and on a number line.

–5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 x

–3 0 3

The  answer  is  3,  because  when  you  plug  it  into  the  inequality,  it  creates  this  ridiculous  statement:  3  >  3…  and  that  is  completely  absurd

a. How many boundary points are there? What are they? Should they be marked with filled or unfilled circles? Make the appropriate markings on a number line.

b. Which portions of the number line contain the solutions? How many regions do you need to test? Represent the solutions algebraically and on a number line.

Something  to  think  about:  |x|  =  x.    That  means  |-­‐8|  =  8  and  |8|  =8  also  

x=  1  and  x=  -­‐3   4|x+1|  -­‐2  >  6  4|x+1|  >  8  |x+1|  >2  

X+1  >  2  X>  1  

X+1>  -­‐2  X>  -­‐3  

Once  you  get  to  this  point,  make  two  separate  inequali>es  

So  1  and  -­‐3  are  the  boundaries.

c. On the graph, identify the x-values for which 2x2 + 5x ! 3 " x2 + 4x + 3 . How did you locate the solutions? How many solutions are there? Find a way to describe all of the solutions.

d. How can these solutions be represented on a number line? Locate the number line labeled with 2x2 + 5x ! 3 " x2 + 4x + 3 below the graph on your resource page. Use a colored marker to highlight the solutions to the inequality on the number line.

e. What about the inequality2x2 + 5x ! 3 > x2 + 4x + 3? What are the solutions to this inequality? Represent your solutions algebraically and on a number line.

5-55. Now consider the inequality 2x ! 5 > 1 . [ a: Answers vary, x > 3 ; b: 3; c: See

number line far below right. x > 3 ]

a. List at least three solutions of this inequality.

b. What is the smallest number that will make this inequality true? If you cannot find the smallest number, which number is the largest that makes it not true? This number is a boundary .

c. Draw a number line like the one at right on your paper and mark the boundary point for 2x ! 5 > 1 . Is the point part of the solution of the inequality? If yes, fill in a point on the line; if not draw an open circle. On which side of the boundary do the solutions lie? Indicate the solutions by “bolding” the appropriate portion of the number line and representing the graph algebraically.
