3. Solving Inequalities Using Multiplication or Division
Sign In
Inequalities can be solved in a way similar to how we solve equations, by performing inverse operations until the variable is isolated.
Solution: x>3/8
Graphing Calculator:
To solve this inequality using a calculator we begin by pressing Y=. Then, we write it on the first row.
To draw the inequality, we press GRAPH.
We cannot see exactly where this graph starts, but the solution set lies to the right of a number that is between 0 and 1. We can estimate this to be greater than 38, verifying our solution.
