Solve inequalities that contain more than one
operation.
Holt Algebra 1
Solving Two-Step and
3-4 Multi-Step Inequalities
Inequalities that contain more than one
operation require more than one step to solve.
Use inverse operations to undo the operations
in the inequality one at a time.

Example 1A: Solving Multi-Step Inequalities
Solve the inequality and graph the solutions.
45 + 2b > 61
45 + 2b > 61
–45

Since 45 is added to 2b,
subtract 45 from both sides
to undo the addition.

Solving Two-Step and
3-4 Multi-Step Inequalities
To solve more complicated inequalities, you
may first need to simplify the expressions on
one or both sides by using the order of
operations, combining like terms, or using the
Distributive Property.

Example 2A: Simplifying Before Solving Inequalities
Solve the inequality and graph the solutions.
2 – (–10) > –4t

Combine like terms.
Since t is multiplied by –4, divide
both sides by –4 to undo the
multiplication. Change > to <.

To rent a certain vehicle, Rent-A-Ride charges $55.00
per day with unlimited miles. The cost of renting a
similar vehicle at We Got Wheels is $38.00 per day plus
$0.20 per mile. For what number of miles in the cost at
Rent-A-Ride less than the cost at We Got Wheels?
