equal. The symbol “=” is used to denote equality. For example, 5x = 9, b – 1 = 2, and 7 –
2a = 3. An inequality is a mathematical sentence indicating that two expressions are
not equal. The relation symbol symbols <, ≤, >, ≥, and ≠ are used to denote inequality. For
example, 5x < 9, 3b – 1 > 2, 7 – 2a ≤ 3, and 4 < 2x + 1 < 7.

Introduction of the Topic
This lesson will introduce the properties of equality and inequality as means of solving equations and
inequalities. In addition, we shall concentrate on finding the solution and solution set of an equation and
inequality, respectively.

A linear equation in one variable is one which can be written in the form ax + b = 0, where a and b are
real numbers and a ≠ 0, e.g. 3x – 2 = 7 and x + 5 = -1. On the other hand, 3x – 2 > 7 and x + 5 ≤ -1 are
examples of linear inequalities.

When a mathematical sentence contains a variable, it becomes an open mathematical sentence. A


variable is used to represent a number. Unless we know what number the variable stands for, we cannot
specify the quantity represented by the open mathematical sentence which contains the variable.
Illustrative examples:
1) 3x – 2 = 7 The statement is either true or false.
If x = 2, then 3x – 2 = 7 is false because 3(2) – 2 ≠ 7 6–2≠7 4≠7
If x = 3, then 3x – 2 = 7 is true because 3(3) – 2 = 7 9–2=7 7=7
When a variable in an equation is replaced by a number and results to a true statement,
that number is a solution of the equation.
2) x + 5 ≤ -1 The statement is either true or false.
If x = 1, then x + 5 ≤ -1 is false because 1 + 5 ≤ -1 6 ≤ -1
If x = -6, then x + 5 ≤ -1 is true because -6 + 5 ≤ -1 -1 ≤ -1
If x = -10, then x + 5 ≤ -1 is true because -10 + 5 ≤ -1 -5 ≤ -1
When a number replaces a variable in an inequality and results to a true statement, that number is
one of the solutions of the inequality. The set of all solutions for a given inequality is called the solution set
of the inequality.

Lesson 1.1: Properties of Equality and Inequality

Properties of Equality

To find the solution of a given equation, we need to use the Properties of Equality.
Let a, b, and c are real numbers.
1. Reflexive Property (a = a) Left
– states that any number or expression is equal to itself. Side Right
e.g. 4 = 4 -7 = -7 1.5 = 1.5 x–5=3 Side
2. Symmetric Property (If a = b, then b = a)
– interchanging the sides of an equation will not affect its equality. Relation
e.g. If 5 = 2 + 3, then 2 + 3 = 5. If 3 – 1 = 2, then 2 = 3 – 1. symbol
3. Transitive Property (If a = b and b = c, then a = c)
– tells us that if the first expression is equal to the second expression, and the
second expression is equal to the third, therefore, the first expression is also equal
to the third expression.
e.g. If 8 + 1 = 9 and 9 = 10 – 1, then 8 + 1 = 10 – 1.
4. Addition Property (APE) (If a = b, then a + c = b + c)
– states that if you add the same number (or its additive inverse) to both sides of an equation, they will remain
equal (i.e., the equation continues to be true.)
e.g. If 7 + 4 = 11 then 7 + 4 + (-4) = 11 + (-4).
5. Multiplication Property (MPE) (If a = b, then ac = bc)
– states that if you multiply the same number (or its multiplicative inverse) to both sides of an equation, they
will remain equal (i.e., the equation continues to be true.)
e.g. If (3)(4) = 12 then (3)(4)(5) = 12(5).

Properties of Inequality

To find the solution set of a given inequality, we need to use the Properties of Inequality.
Let a, b, and c are real numbers.
1. Addition Property (API) If a < b, then a + c < b + c.
e.g. If 4 < 5 then 4 + 2 < 5 + 2.
2. Multiplication Property (MPI) (2.1) If a < b and c > 0, then ac < bc.
e.g. If 12 < 15 then 12(5) < 15(5).

(2.2) If a < b and c < 0, then ac > bc.


e.g. If 10 < 12 then 10(-1) > 12(-1). Left Side
Note: The properties of inequality will still hold true using the relation Right Side
symbols ≤ and ≥ instead of < and >. Notice also that the inequality symbol is x–5>3
Relation symbol

reversed when both sides of the inequality are multiplied by the same negative number.

Lesson 1.2: Finding the Solution of a Linear Equations in one Variable


Recall that if the same number is added to the left and right sides of an equation, the resulting sums
are equal. We will now illustrate how this property is applied in solving linear equations in one variable.

Illustrative examples:
Solve for x. That means, just add its
x–3=6 additive inverse on both
1) x – 3 + 3 = 6 + 3 2) x – 8 = -1 sides to isolate the
variable x.
Add 3 to both sides. x – 8 + 8 = -1 + 8 Add 8 to both sides.
x=9
3) 4) x=7
x + 4 = -3 x+7=2
Add -4 to both sides. Add -7 to both sides
x + 4 + (-4) = -3 + (-4) x + 7 + (-7) = 2 + (-7)
x = -7 x = -5
Recall that if the same number is multiplied to the left and right sides of an equation, the resulting
products are equal. We will now illustrate how this property is applied in solving linear equations in one
variable.
That means, just multiply its

Lesson 1.3: Finding the Solution Set of a Linear Inequality in one Variable
Recall that a solution of a linear inequality in one variable depends on the given set of real number
from which values for the variable can be taken. In addition, the set of real number that makes the inequality
true when substituted to the variable is called the solution set of the inequality. Let us now apply properties
of inequality.
It shows that the set of

RECALL: Absolute Value

The absolute value of a real number a, denoted by | a |, is


defined as the distance of a number from zero (the origin) on the number line. For
example, | −6 | = 6 and | 6 | = 6.
6 units 6 units

Using the figure, | -6 | = 6 and | 6 | = 6. Therefore, the equation | x | = 6 has two solutions for x,
which are { x | x = -6 and 6 }. In symbols: | a | = { ±a }.

Lesson 2.1: Solving and Graphing Linear Equation in One Variable Involving Absolute Value
In this lesson you will learn how to solve and graph linear equation in one variable involving absolute
value. If a is a positive number, then the solution to the absolute value equation | x | = a is x = -a and x = a.

Illustrative Examples:
Find the solution/solution set of the following linear equation in one variable involving absolute value
and show its graph:
1) Solve | x – 7 | = 10.

Step 1: Let the expression on one side of the No need to isolate because the expression on the left side

Step 3: To satisfy the equation, the expression x – 7 = -10 x – 7 = 10
inside the absolute value can either be -10 or 10.
These correspond to two equations.
Step 4: Solve both conclusions. 𝑥 − 7 = -10 x – 7 = 10
x – 7 + 7 = -10 + 7 x – 7 + 7 = 10 + 7
x = -3 x = 17
Step 5: Give your conclusion. Thus, { x | x = -3 and 17 }.
Step 6: Graph as shown on the right side.

2) Solve | x + 1 | = 8
Solution and steps:
Step 1: Let the expression on one side of the No need to isolate because the expression on the left side consists

equation negative?
Step 3: To satisfy the equation, the expression
inside the absolute value can either be -10 or 10. x+1=8 x + 1 = -8
These correspond to two equations.
Step 4: Solve both conclusions. x+1=8 x + 1 =-8
x +1 + (-1) = 8 + (-1) x +1 + (-1) = -8 + (-1)
x=7 x = -9
Step 5: Give your conclusion. Thus, { x | x = -9 and 7 }.
Step 6: Graph as shown on the right side.

Lesson 2.2: Solving and Graphing Linear Inequality in One Variable Involving
Absolute Value
There are two types of absolute value inequalities; each corresponds to a different procedure.
If | x | < k, then –k < x < k. If | x | > k, then x < –k or x > k. It will also hold for ≤ and ≥. These
principles work for any positive number k. On the other hand, if | x | < -k, then there is no solution.
If | x | > -k, then x ϵ R. In addition, if | x | < 0, then there is no solution, and if | x | > 0, then x ϵ R.

STEPS IN SOLVING LINEAR EQUATION IN ONE VARIABLE INVOLVING ABSOLUTE VALUE:


Step 1: Let the expression on one side of the equation consist only of a single absolute value
expression.
Step 2: Is the number on the other side of the equation negative? If it is, then the equation has no
solution. If it is not, then proceed to step 3.
Step 3: If the number on the other side of the equation is equal to zero, then there is only one
solution. If it is a positive number, say a, then the expression inside the absolute value can
either be -a and a. So, equate the expression inside the absolute value sign to -a and to a.
Step 4. Solve both equations.
Step 5. Give its conclusion.
Step 6. Finally, graph the given equation.

There are two types of absolute value inequalities; each corresponds to a different procedure.
If | x | < k, then –k < x < k. If | x | > k, then x < –k or x > k. It will also satisfy the inequalities with
the symbols ≤ and ≥. These principles work for any positive number k. On the other hand, if | x | <
-k, then there is no solution. If | x | > -k, then x ϵ R. In addition, if | x | < 0, then there is no
solution, and if | x | > 0, then x ϵ R.
