11-5 Introduction to Inequalities
Preview of Grade 7 AF1.1 Use variables and appropriate operations to write an expression, an equation, an inequality, or a system of equations, or inequalities that represents a verbal description (e.g., three less than a number, half as large as area A).

11-5 Introduction to Inequalities
An inequality is a statement that compares two expressions by using one of the following symbols: <, >, ≤, ≥, or .
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

11-5 Introduction to Inequalities
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.

11-5 Introduction to 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

11-5 Introduction to Inequalities
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.

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.
