I need help reviewing how to solve inequalities, my teacher is just confusing me and I'm getting frustrated...please help!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

example?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just solving and graphing inequalities. I can't seem to grasp the concept.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know how to solve linear equations?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's what I need help with lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

theyre 2 different things, but they are similar, thats why i was asking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry. im not good with this stuff, Im more of an English person..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so lets take a simple one x+3<2 you have to figure out weather this is right or wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, and to do that, I'm assuming that I must solve for x..by subtracting 3 from both sides?..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and it leaves you with x<-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its pretty much solved like that except they start to get longer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh, is -1 the y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i believe so.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you need to graph too?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes please.
