6.1 Solving and graphing one step inequalities

If you go to IXL.com under the Algebra section there is some great practice available.  Try sections K.1   K.2   K.3  K.4     Sections 1, 2, and 4 need ADOBE FLASH player so they are best done on a laptop or desktop computer.

IMPORTANT REMINDERS for 6.1  :

You solve an inequality just like you solve an equation.

When graphing with a < or > sign you will always have an open circle because that point is not a solution. An inequality sign that contains an = will always have a closed circle.

If your variable is on the left side of your inequality symbol then you can simply shade the direction the arrow points.
