Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Solve Inequalities. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

Use Order of Operations to evaluate expressions.
Calculate using all rational numbers.
Plot inequalities on a number line.
Solve inequalities using the same methods as solving equations, treating the <, >, <=, >= as an = symbol.
Multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative number reverses the order of the comparison it represents.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What is an inequality? How do we compare two numbers? How do you solve a one-step inequality? How do you solve a two-step inequality? Define each symbol: <, <, >, >.

After the Game

Explain how the order of operations was used to help you solve two of the problems?1 In the game when did you choose to include the number in your number line? Why is -4 > -9? Why would you need to add two numbers to compare? What does it mean to include or exclude the start value? When multiplying or dividing by a negative what happens to the symbol?
