What is the solution set of an inequality?

Back

The solution set of an inequality is the set of all values that satisfy the inequality.

How do you graph a linear inequality on a number line?

Back

To graph a linear inequality, use an open circle for '>' or '<' and a closed circle for '≥' or '≤'. Shade the region that represents the solution set.

What is the difference between an equation and an inequality?

Back

An equation states that two expressions are equal, while an inequality shows that one expression is not necessarily equal to the other and can be greater or less.
