Chapter 7: Linear Inequalities

This document discusses linear inequalities and key concepts related to comparing values and forming algebraic inequalities. It introduces important inequality symbols like >, <, ≥, ≤ and their meanings. It also covers identifying relationships described by inequalities, as well as the converse and transitive properties of inequalities. Tips are provided for comparing different number types and fractions. Homework from the Sasbadi book on pages 67-69 relating to these concepts is assigned as well.

CHAPTER 7 : LINEAR

INEQUALITIES
7.1 INEQUALITIES
LEARNING OUTCOMES :

• Compare the values of numbers


• Describe inequality and form algebraic inequality
• Identify relationship
• The converse property and the transitive property of
inequalities
• Additive and multiplicative inverse
INEQUALITIES

• The relationship between two quantities that do not have the same value
is known as an inequality.
KEYWORDS
• > = more than
Example, 80 > 50 ; 80 is more than 50
• < = less than
Example, 50 < 80 ; 50 is lesser than 80
• ≥ = equal or more than
Example, weight of Aidan is equal or more than 40kg [ Weight of Aidan ≥ 40kg]
• ≤ = equal or less than
Example, weight of Aidan is equal or less than 50kg [ Weight of Aidan ≤ 50kg]
COMPARE THE VALUES OF NUMBERS

Negative numbers are always Power 2 is always bigger than


smaller than positive power 1
TIPS
• Negative number is always smaller than positive numbers (-5 < 4)
• Comparison between fraction and a whole number, fraction is always smaller than whole number
2
[ <1]
5
• Comparison between fractions :
1
i. numerator same, check the denominator. Lower the denominator, the higher the value. [ <
6
1
]
2
3 4
ii. Denominator same, check numerator. Lower numerator, smaller value. [ < ]
6 6
iii. Both not same, use calculator. Check the decimal point value.
• Decimal number with more number of places is smaller. [ 0.02 < 0.2 ]
• Kg is bigger than g, cm is bigger than mm.
• 2 is smaller than 2.
Self Practice 7.1 (a)
Fill in the boxes with the symbol ‘>’ or ‘<’ so that it becomes a true statement.
Hence, write an inequality for each statement by using ‘is greater than’ or
‘is less than’.

Solution :
(a) -6 < 0 (-6 is lesser than 0)
DESCRIBE INEQUALITY AND FORM ALGEBRAIC
INEQUALITY

8 is on the right of x. Hence, 8 is bigger/greater than x.

Solution :
x<8 OR 8>x
x is less than 8 8 is greater than x
IDENTIFY RELATIONSHIP
Keywords :
• At least : ≥
• At most : ≤

• When performing reciprocal of both
numbers on both sides of the inequality,
the direction of the inequality symbol is
reversed.
• It is known as multiplicative inverse.
