Linear Inequalities
Maths Revision Guide
In these tutorials you are shown how to solve linear inequalities.
But firstly you should start with our introductory tutorial which explains how inequalities can be read and represented on number lines.
In order to solve linear inequalities, it is essential that you learn some of the basic rules of when to reverese the inequality sign. Take a look at this tutorial on when to reverse the sign. If you do not learn these rules you are likely to go wrong.
Next we explore the solution to the following linear equations. Each question develops a new concept. You may wish to try these before looking at the worked solutions.
