____4. Use a graph to find the solution.

You want to set up an aquarium and need to determine what size

tank to buy. The graph shows tank sizes using a rule that relates

the capacity of the tank to the combined lengths of the fish it can hold.

what is the smallest capacity tank you can buy?

a. / 13-gallon / c. / 11-gallon
b. / 15-gallon / d. / 17-gallon

  • Solving Inequalities and graphing results (Section 1-5)

Recall: When dividing or multiplying by a negative number, be sure to switch the inequality sign!

Recall: No Solution (untrue statement) so no graphand All Real Numbers (True statement) so shade entire line.

Solve each inequality, then graph the solutions on a number line.

18. 19.

  • Solving Combined Inequalities (“and”/“or” statements) and graphing results (Section 1-5)

Recall: “And” statements are intersections (overlapping) of graphs

“Or” statements are unions (everything on same number line) of graphs

Recall: No Solution (untrue statement) so no graph and All Real Numbers (True statement) so shade entire line.

Solve each inequality, then graph each open sentence over the set of real numbers.

20. and 21. or

Solve each inequality, then graph each open sentence over the set of real numbers.

22. or 23. and

24. and 25. or

  • Solving Absolute Value Equalities and Inequalities and graphing results

(Section 1-6)

Recall: Isolate the absolute value part of the equality/inequality first!

Rewrite abs. value equality as an “OR” statement

Rewrite abs. value inequality as combined inequality: Great”OR” Less”AND”

“And” statements are intersections (overlapping) of graphs

“Or” statements are unions (everything on same number line) of graphs

Solve each open sentence and graph its solution.
