Algebra 1 Compound Inequalities Two inequalities that are joined by the word and or the word or form a compound inequality. You can write the compound inequality x ≥ -5 and x ≤ 7 as -5 ≤ x ≤ 7 “x is greater than or equal to -5 and less than or equal to 7.” OR “x is between -5 and 7, inclusive.”

Algebra 1 Compound Inequalities And vs. Or And: x must satisfy both inequalities Or: x must satisfy one inequality

Algebra 1 Compound Inequalities -1 ≤ x < 5 “x is greater than or equal to -1 and x is less than 5.” -1 ≤ x and x < 5 x ≥ -1 and x < 5

Algebra 1 Compound Inequalities -1 < x ≤ 1 “x is greater than -1 and x is less than or equal to 1.” -1 < x and x ≤ 1 x > -1 and x ≤ 1

Algebra 1 Compound Inequalities Envelope Activity You will work in pairs. Each group will get an envelope with a number on the front and each person in that group with a paper numbered 1-8. You will open the envelope you get. Solve the problem and write your work/answer on the piece of paper corresponding to the number on the front of the envelope. Pass the envelope on the group to your left. Keep passing until you get the envelope you started with back.
