Back to Tutor Intake Assessment: Write an inequality to represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem

6.EE.B.8 Tutor Intake -- Writing and Graphing Inequalities

This short check helps your tutor see where to start. Work each problem on
your own, without a calculator unless a problem says otherwise. If you are
not sure, give your best try — every answer helps your tutor plan your
first few sessions.

A

Concepts

1

A library sign reads "Study room capacity: fewer than 12
people." Which step is NOT part of translating this constraint
into an inequality?

2

The equation x=12x = 12 has exactly one solution. How many
solutions does the inequality x<12x < 12 have? Enter 1 for
"exactly one" or 2 for "infinitely many."

3

For the inequality x<7x < 7, is there a "largest" solution — a
value greater than every other solution but still less than 7?

B

Procedures

1

Does x=15x = 15 satisfy the inequality x>10x > 10? Enter 1 for yes or
0 for no.

2

Does the threshold value x=9x = 9 satisfy the strict inequality
x>9x > 9? Enter 1 for yes or 0 for no.

3

A number line diagram shows an open circle at 5 with an arrow
extending to the right (toward larger numbers). Which inequality
does this diagram represent?

4

A student is graphing the strict inequality x<4x < 4 on a number
line. Which combination of circle type and arrow direction is
correct?
