The document discusses linear inequalities in one variable. It defines a linear inequality in one variable as an inequality that can be written in the form ax + b > c, where a, b, and c are real numbers. It notes that the > symbol can be replaced by ≥, <, or ≤. The document provides examples and steps for transforming linear inequalities into standard form where the leading coefficient a is positive and the inequality is written as ax + b > 0. It emphasizes using properties of inequalities and multiplying by -1 when a is negative.
