What the syllabus asks of you

  • Represent and interpret inequalities, including on a number line.
  • Construct, solve and interpret linear inequalities.
  • Represent and interpret linear inequalities in two variables graphically.
  • List inequalities that define a given region.
  • When representing and interpreting inequalities on a number line: ; open circles should be used to represent strict inequalities (<, >) ; closed circles should be used to represent inclusive inequalities (⩽, ⩾). e.g. – 3 ⩽ x < 1 – 3 – 2 – 1 x Examples include: ; 3x < 2x + 4 ; –3 ⩽ 3x – 2 < 7 .
