What does the Addition Property of Inequality state?
What does the Addition Property of Inequality state?
If you add the same value to each side of an inequality, the relationship between the two sides does not change.
What is the Division Property of Inequality?
What is the Division Property of Inequality?
If you divide an inequality by a positive number, the direction of the inequality is unchanged. If you divide by a negative number, you reverse the direction of the inequality sign.

Study Notes
Properties of Inequality
- Addition Property of Inequality: Adding the same number to both sides of an inequality does not affect the inequality's relationship.
- Subtraction Property of Inequality: Subtracting the same number from both sides maintains the relationship of the inequality.
- Multiplication Property of Inequality: Multiplying by a positive number keeps the inequality direction the same; multiplying by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.
- Division Property of Inequality: Dividing by a positive number maintains inequality direction; dividing by a negative number reverses the sign.
Understanding Inequality
- Definition of Inequality: A mathematical expression showing the relationship of two quantities using symbols such as <, >, ≤, ≥, or ≠.
- Solution of an Inequality: Any value that satisfies the inequality, making it true, is considered a solution.
