The document discusses various methods for solving inequalities, including:
- Properties for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing terms within an inequality
- Using set-builder and interval notation to describe the solution set of an inequality
- Graphical representations using open and closed circles to indicate whether a number is or isn't part of the solution set
The document provides examples of applying these different techniques to solve specific inequalities.
