Solving a Linear Inequality
Step 1:- Simplify each side separately. Use the distributive property to clear parentheses and combine like terms as needed.
Step 2:- Isolate the variable terms on one side. Use the addition property of inequality to get all terms with variables on one side of
the inequality and all numbers on the other side.
Step 3:- Isolate the variable. Use the multiplication property of inequality to change the inequality to the form x < k or x > k.
