Bell Ringer Represent to following in a compound
Bell Ringer Represent to following in a compound inequality: 1. You must spent more than $5 but less than $30 to receive the sale price. 2. You need to buy shirts for the AC. You need to buy at least 10 for the company to take your order, but you cannot exceed 145.
Compound Inequalities • SWBAT solve and graph a compound inequality
Compound Inequality A compound inequality consists of two inequalities connected by and or or.
What is the difference between and or? A B AND means intersection -what do the two items have in common? OR means union -if it is in one item, it is in the solution
1) Graph x < 4 x ≥ 2 a) Graph x < 4 o 2 3 4 b) Graph x ≥ 2 ● 2 c) Combine the graphs d) Where do they intersect? ● 2 3 o 4
2) Graph x < 2 or x ≥ 4 a) Graph x < 2 o 2 b) Graph x ≥ 4 2 3 3 c) Combine the graphs 4 ● 4
Steps for Solving Compound Inequalities 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Determine if the inequality is an “and” or and “or” type. Separate the compound inequality into 2 pieces and solve both. Graph each result on the same number line Pay attention to your boundaries. GOAL: Get variable by itself in the middle
Bell Ringer Graph the following compound inequalities on the number line. v -2 < x <5 v v x < 4 or x ≥ 0

Introduction to Absolute Value
What are opposites on a number line? Graph the integer set from – 5 to + 5 Two numbers that are the same distance from zero are said to be opposites
But what is Absolute Value? Absolute Value is the distance a number is from zero. Remember distance itself is ALWAYS positive
How do we denote absolute value? SO let’s try a few: What general statement can you make about absolute value?
Be careful! In math a negative sign in front of the absolute value sign should be read “take the opposite of”. This means treat the absolute value sign like a grouping symbol. Do the work inside first THEN take the opposite of
Let’s try a few
