20. Write and solve inequalities in the form of x>c, x<c, x≥c, or x≤c to represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem.

a. Interpret the solution of an inequality in the context of a problem.

b. Represent the solutions of inequalities on a number line and explain that the solution set may contain infinitely many solutions.

In this lesson, students will

• write and explain inequality statements involving rational numbers.
• justify inequality statements involving rational numbers.
• use a number line to represent the solutions to inequalities.
