What you'll learn

  1. 1

    Think of a balance scale. If the left side is heavier, it tips down — that's like an inequality!

    Which symbol means 'greater than'?

  3. 3

    Drag the numbers to make this inequality true: 5 ___ 3

    Solve: x + 3 > 7 — let's find what x can be!

  5. 5

    Which number makes this true? x - 2 < 5

  6. 6

    If x > 4, which of these is NOT a possible value for x?
