24 3.4 Solving Inequalities Using Addition or Subtraction Goal: Solve inequalities using addition or subtraction. Vocabulary Inequality: An inequality is a statement formed by placing an inequality symbol, such as < or >, between two expressions. Solution of an inequality: Equivalent inequalities: The solution of an inequality with a variable is the set of all numbers that produce true statements when substituted for the variable. Equivalent inequalities are inequalities that have the same solution. Example 1 Writing and Graphing an Inequality Air Travel An airline allows passengers to carry on-board one piece of luggage. Luggage that exceeds 40 pounds cannot be carried on-board. Write an inequality that gives the weight of luggage that cannot be carried on-board. Solution Let w represent the weight of the luggage. Because the weight cannot exceed 40 pounds, the weight of luggage that cannot be carried on-board must be greater than 40 pounds. Answer: The inequality is w > 40.
