Instructions

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

Main Concepts

The variable represents all the solutions that satisfy the equation or inequality.

Express constraints from real world or mathematical context as an inequality.

Differentiate between whether a variable refers to a specific number or all numbers in a domain.

The inequalities x > c or x < c, have all of the solutions greater or less than c and so have infinitely many solutions.

Represent solutions on a number line by having an open circle on the start of the solution and highlighting the number line in the correct direction to the end of the number lin.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What is an equation? What is an inequality? On a number line, what does a closed circle represent? What does an open circle represent?

After the Game

A monster wants more than four foods, but less than six - how would you represent this as a mathematical statement using inequality operators? During the game, you might have noticed that there was a line under some of the inequalities - what does this line mean and when do you use it? How are compound inequalities represented as one complete statement?
