Instead, learn the most effective methodology to solve a particular question type. For example, a meaning based approach for SC and pre-analysis approach in DS Quant. Also, go through solutions step-by-step to maximize your learning effectively.

Here we are, with the Fourth Topic of the Series!

Week 4: Number-line Method | Easy Method to solve Inequalities & Exponents Algebra questions

Hello Everyone,

Do inequalities and exponents problems seem so difficult that you feel like skipping the topic?

Even though it may look tricky, it is very easy to solve them using the Number Line Method. The 4 regions on the number line can be a great tool to help you solve exponent based inequality questions. Most people plug random values while solving such questions and end up spending 4+ mins, which is a lot, especially if you get the question wrong.

In this lesson, you'll learn a systematic way to approach such questions and even while plugging values, we'll learn how to rationally decide which numbers to choose from.

Watch this video to learn the methodical approach to solve such questions.

Learn this concept and share your queries in the comment box.

We have also shared 3 questions at the end of the video for you to practice. A detailed video explaining the solution of these 3 questions will be uploaded on Friday.
