3. Introduction Problem Mr. Smith wants to take his family, a wife and three children, to the movies. He has at most $62. Seven dollars will be spent buying the family a snack for the movie, and the rest will be spent on movie tickets. What amount can Mr. Smith pay for a movie ticket?

4. Solving & Graphing Two-Step Inequalities 2. Graph the solution on a number line. An open (empty) circle signals that the value is not a solution (use with ). A closed (solid) circle signals that the value is a solution (use with ≥ and ≤). Graph t ≤ 11. Eleven is a solution to the inequality, so use a closed circle. Then draw the arrow in the direction of the numbers that are less than 11. 9 10 11 12 13 14 1. Solve the two-step inequality just like solving a two- step equation (follow the reverse of the order of operations). 5t + 7 ≤ 62 Subtract 7 from both sides. Divide both sides by 5. - 7 - 7 5t ≤ 55 __ ___ 5 5 t ≤ 11

5. Problem Mr. Smith wants to take his family, a wife and three children, to the movies. He has at most $62. Seven dollars will be spent buying the family a snack for the movie, and the rest will be spent on movie tickets. What amount can Mr. Smith pay for a movie ticket? t ≤ 11 Mr. Smith can pay no more than $11 dollars per ticket. Can Mr. Smith take the family to the movies? We cannot determine the answer with the information given.

6. Solving and Graphing Two-Step Inequalities Group Problem x / 2 - 6 > 10 + 6 + 6Add 6 to both sides to undo subtracting 6. x / 2 > 16 2 ∙ x / 2 > 16 · 2Multiply both sides by 2 to undo dividing by 2. x > 32 Check: 34 / 2 – 6 > 10 Choose a value larger than 32 to check. 17 – 6 > 10 11 > 10 29 30 31 32 33 34 35
