Solving+and+Graphing+Inequalities

=**Solving and Graphing Inequalities**=


 * Utah State Core:**
 * Standard III**-Students will develop fluency with the language and operation of algebra to analyze and represent relationships.
 * Objective 2**-Solve and interpret linear equations and inequalities in various situations including real-world problems.
 * a**-Solve single-variable linear equations and inequalities algebraically and graphically.


 * Summary: This lesson includes a powerpoint and a quiz (made with Easy Quizzy). The lesson emphasizes solving inequalities for a variable (but assumes the students already has a backround of solving equations for variables). It introduces and explains the rule of flipping the inequality sign when multiplying/dividing by a negative. It also provides a reference table of graphing inequalities (whether to use an open circle or closed circle and which way to shade). To give a heads up, the problem on slide 8 is solved incorrectly so the students can see what happens if the inequality isn't flipped. Then the rule is explained and the problem is solved again, this time correctly.
