In the last column of the table, place an A if you agree with the statement or a D if you
disagree. Correct any you disagree with to make them true.
Statement A or D
1. Expressions are solved.
2. The absolute value of a number is its distance from 0 on the number
line.
3. When adding or subtracting a negative number from both sides of
an inequality, the inequality symbol must be reversed.
4. If you are solving the equation4 8 12 16 x x + , you should divide both
sides by 4 first.
5. Absolute value inequalities are usually categorized as and and
or statements.
6. You should graph all solutions to equations and inequalities on a
number line.
7. When solving absolute value equations and absolute value
inequalities, you should isolate the absolute value expression on one
side before taking the absolute value symbols off.
