Inequalities on number lines

Solving simple linear inequalities

Linear inequalities in context

Problem solving with linear inequalities

In this unit, pupils will learn how to extend their understanding of solving equations and extend this to consider inequalities. Pupils will consider a variety of inequalities and ways that their solutions can be represented.

In this unit, pupils extend their understanding of inequalities and consider a range of contextual inequalities and ways to find and represent their solutions.
