Description

Complete lesson on Solving Negative Ineqaulities. Includes notes, practice and test prep questions. Extra practice, worked solutions and a video for the notes are available for free at www.flippedmath.com on the Math 7 course.

The lesson opens with a look at why the inequality sign changes under certain operations. The lesson continues with determining if the inequality sign will flip when solving an inequality. The lesson ends with solving inequality and flipping the sign when appropriate. Lesson is designed for Middle School students but could easily be used as review/remediation for High School students.

This is the third of four lessons on Inequalities.

The top section of this resource was a quick way to show students why we flip the inequality when multiplying or dividing by a negative. Plenty of practice problems. Perfect for independent work.

CCSS6.EE.B.8

Write an inequality of the form 𝘹 > 𝘤 or 𝘹 < 𝘤 to represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem. Recognize that inequalities of the form 𝘹 > 𝘤 or 𝘹 < 𝘤 have infinitely many solutions; represent solutions of such inequalities on number line diagrams.

CCSS7.EE.B.4

Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.

CCSS7.EE.B.4b

Solve word problems leading to inequalities of the form 𝘱𝘹 + 𝘲 > 𝘳 or 𝘱𝘹 + 𝘲 < 𝘳, where 𝘱, 𝘲, and 𝘳 are specific rational numbers. Graph the solution set of the inequality and interpret it in the context of the problem. For example: As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per week plus $3 per sale. This week you want your pay to be at least $100. Write an inequality for the number of sales you need to make, and describe the solutions.
