About this worksheet

What students practice

  • Students write inequalities to represent strict limits on step counts and heart-rate readings.
  • Students test values and graph solutions of inequalities using open circles and directional rays.
  • Students explain why an inequality can have infinitely many real-number solutions.

How to use

Use after introducing inequality symbols. Have students mark graph endpoints carefully, then discuss the difference between whole-number step counts and real-number solutions.

Curriculum

Common Core standard covered

6.EE.B.8

Write inequalities like x > c or x < c for real-world limits, see they have infinitely many solutions, and graph them.

Fitness Tracker: Alert Thresholds

Model strict limits with inequalities and number-line graphs.

Translate Tracker Rules

Use > for greater than and < for less than. A strict limit does not include its boundary value.

1.
A tracker displays a badge only when the daily step count is more than 7,200. Let n be the daily step count. Which inequality represents the badge rule?
  • A. n > 7,200
  • B. n > 7,201
  • C. n < 7,201
  • D. n < 7,200
2.
During a cooldown, a tracker highlights a heart-rate reading below 94 beats per minute. Let x be the reading in beats per minute. Which inequality represents this rule?
  • A. x < 94
  • B. x > 93
  • C. x > 94
  • D. x < 95
3.
Match each tracker rule to its inequality.
  1. A step count n is fewer than 4,800.
  2. A step count n is greater than 4,800.
  3. A heart-rate reading x is above 112 beats per minute.
  4. A heart-rate reading x is below 112 beats per minute.
  1. A. n < 4,800
  2. B. n > 4,800
  3. C. x < 112
  4. D. x > 112
