In this performance assessment, students will graph and interpret inequalities in one variable. Specifically, students will be presented with four questions that require students to graph solutions of inequalities, match solutions with graphs, and to interpret contextual solutions. Students should have had instruction on solving and graphing inequalities before this assessment is used.

| Big Ideas | Competencies |
|---|---|
B. Operations and Algebraic ThinkingStudents can use mathematics to analyze and evaluate historical, political, economic, scientific, and social problems and make conjectures about possible solutions. |
Solve Inequalities 2Students can graph the solution set of an inequality and interpret it in the context of the original problem. |
Below are analytic teacher rubrics. The column on the left shows the dimension that is being measured in the student’s performance. The levels across the top row indicate the performance level in the dimensions. Occasionally all dimensions and performance levels are exemplified by multiple students in a single recording.
