B. Developmental activities
1. Motivation
I have here the different symbols. Can you tell me
the meaning of the following?
1. + (Addition)
2. ÷ (Division)
3. x (Multiplication)
4. – (Subtraction)
5. ˂ (Less than)
6. ˃ (Greater than)
7. ≥ (Greater than or equal to)
8. ≤ (Less than or equal to)
Example:
1. 3 + 2 = 5
Is it true or false? False.
Therefore 3 + 2 ≠ 5 it is an inequality.
What is the meaning of this sign (≠)? Unequal.
Example:
1. x – 4 ˂ 3
How can we determine that the statement is true or By using guess and check.
false?
This statement is either true or false. What do you
think is the value of our x to make the statement
true?
If x = 6, then x – 4 ˂ 3
6-4˂3
2 ˂ 3 true because 2 is less than 3.
How about x = 10? Who wants to answer? If x = 10, then x – 4 ˂ 3
10 - 4 ˂ 3
6 ˂ 3 false because 6 is
greater than 3.
Do you think that there can be more than one solution Yes, ma’am.
to a linear inequalities in one variable?
Another example:
2. Consider the inequality x – 12 ˂ 4. If x = 18, then 18 – 12 ˂ 4
Who wants to answer? 6 ˂ 4 false
If x = 17, then 17 – 12 ˂ 4
5 ˂ 4 false
If x = 16, then 16 – 12 ˂ 4
4 ˂ 4 false
If x = 15.5, then 15.5 – 12 ˂ 4
3.5 ˂ 4 true
If x = 15, then 15 – 12 ˂ 4
5 ˂ 4 true
If x = 14, then 14 – 12 ˂ 4
4 ˂ 4 true
(The student will explain their answers)
Can you explain your answer where did you get that
answer?
4. Application
½ crosswise. Complete the following table by placing
a check mark on the cells that correspond to x values
that make the given equation true and answer the
question below.
5. Generalization
What are the difference between linear equations and Linear inequality may have more than
Linear inequalities? one solution because there are
infinitely many numbers that are
greater than (or less than) a given
number. This is not the same for
equations. The linear equations in one

IV. EVALUATION
Answer :
x–3<5
For x = –8: For x = –3: For x = 5: For x = 8: For x = 11:
–8 – 3 = –11 –3 – 3 = –6 5–3=2 8–3=5 11 – 3 = 8
–11 < 5 –6 < 5 2<5 5<5 8 < 13
Therefore – Therefore –3 is Therefore 5 is Therefore 8 is Therefore 11 is
8 is a a solution. a solution. a solution. not a solution.
solution.
V. ASSIGNMENT:
Notebook: Find the solution of the following equations.
1. x + 12 ˃ 17
2. x – 14 ≤ 18
3. x + 19 ˃ 11
4. x – 15 ˂ 14
5. x + 9 ≥ 16
