Algebra 1 · Inequalities
Definition
AND (intersection) is a compound inequality true only where both inequalities are satisfied at once.
Teach it
Where it is taught, with guided notes, practice, homework, an exit ticket and an interactive Teacher Deck.
Examples
- x > 1 AND x < 5 gives 1 < x < 5.
- x ≥ −2 AND x ≤ 3 gives −2 ≤ x ≤ 3.
Key rule
The solution is the overlap where both parts are true.
Memory hook
AND = the overlap; only the shared middle survives.
