Review Worksheet Chapter 3

Section 3-1 Linear Inequalities; Absolute ValueRules1.) You can add or subtract the same number to both sides of an inequalityIf a < b, then a + c < b + c2.) You can multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by the same positive number.If a < b and c > 0, then ac < bc3.) You can multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by the same negative number if you reverse the inequality sign.If a < b and c < 0, then ac > bcAbsolute Valuelxl = cSolution: x = c OR x = -clxl < cSolution: -c < x < clxl > cSolution: x < -c OR x > c
