Solving an Inequality
Solving an inequality is the process of finding the set of numbers that make the inequality a true statement. These numbers are called the solutions of the inequality and we say that they satisfy the inequality. The set of all solutions is called the solution set of the inequality.

Interval Notation
The open interval (a,b) represents the set of real numbers between, but not including, a and b.
The closed interval [a,b] represents the set of real numbers between, and including, a and b.
( , )a b x a x b
[ , ]a b x a x b

Interval Notation (continued)
The infinite interval represents the set of real numbers that are greater than a.
The infinite interval represents the set of real numbers that are less than or equal to b.
( , )a
( , )a x x a
( , ]b x x b

Parentheses and Brackets in Interval Notation
Parentheses indicate endpoints that are not included in an interval. Square brackets indicate endpoints that are included in an interval. Parentheses are always used with or .

Finding Intersections and Unions of Two Intervals
1. Graph each interval on a number line.
2. a. To find the intersection, take the portion of the
number line that the two graphs have in common.
b. To find the union, take the portion of the number
line representing the total collection of numbers
in the two graphs.

Example: Finding Intersections and Unions of Intervals
Use graphs to find the set:
Graph of [1,3]:
Graph of (2,6):
Numbers in both [1,3] and (2,6):
Thus,
[1,3] (2,6)
[1,3] (2,6) (2,3]

Solving Linear Inequalities in One Variable
A linear inequality in x can be written in one of the following forms :
In general, when we multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the inequality symbol is reversed.
0a 0ax b 0ax b
0ax b 0ax b

Example: Solving Linear Inequalities[Recognize inequalities with no solution or all real numbers as solutions]
Solve the inequality: 3( 1) 3 2x x
3 3 3 2x x
3( 1) 3 2x x
3 2
The inequality is true for all values of x. The solution setis the set of all real numbers.
