11-4 Inequalities
An inequality states that two quantitieseither are not equal or may not be equal. An inequality uses one of the following symbols:
Symbol Meaning Word Phrases
<
>
≤
≥
is less than
is greater than
is greater than or equal to
is less than or equal to
Fewer than, below
More than, above
At most, no more than
At least, no less than
Course 2
11-4 Inequalities
Write an inequality for each situation.
Additional Example 1: Writing Inequalities
A. There are at least 15 people in the waiting room.
number of people ≥ 15
B. The tram attendant will allow no more than 60 people on the tram.
number of people ≤ 60
“At least” means greaterthan or equal to.
“No more than” meansless than or equal to.
Course 2
11-4 Inequalities
Write an inequality for each situation.
Try This: Example 1
A. There are at most 10 gallons of gas in the tank.
gallons of gas ≤ 10
B. There is at least 10 yards of fabric left.
yards of fabric ≥ 10
“At most” means lessthan or equal to.
“At least” meansgreater than or equal to.

An inequality that contains a variable is an algebraic inequality. A value of the variable that makes the inequality true is a solution of the inequality.
An inequality may have more than one solution. Together, all of the solutions are called the solution set.
You can graph the solutions of an inequality on a number line. If the variable is “greater than” or “less than” a number, then that number is indicated with an open circle.
Course 2
11-4 Inequalities
This open circle shows that 5 is not a solution.
a > 5
If the variable is “greater than or equal to” or “less than or equal to” a number, that number is indicated with a closed circle.
This closed circle shows that 3 is a solution.
b ≤ 3

Additional Example 2A & 2B: Graphing Simple Inequalities
–3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3
A. n < 33 is not a solution, so draw an open circle at 3. Shade the line to the left of 3.
B. a ≥ –4
–6 –4 –2 0 2 4 6
–4 is a solution, so draw a closed circleat –4. Shade the lineto the right of –4.

A. p ≤ 22 is a solution, so draw a closed circle at 2. Shade the line to the left of 2.
B. e > –2
–3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3
–2 is not a solution, so draw an open circleat –2. Shade the lineto the right of –2.

A compound inequality is the result of combining two inequalities. The words and and or are used to describe how the two parts are related.
x > 3 or x < –1 –2 < y and y < 4
x is either greater than 3 or less than–1.
y is both greater than –2 and less than 4. y is between –2 and 4.
The compound inequality –2 < y and y < 4 can be written as –2 < y < 4.
