Front

What does it mean if an inequality has no solution?

Back

It means there are no values that satisfy the inequality.

Front

What is the difference between strict and non-strict inequalities?

Back

Strict inequalities (<, >) do not include the boundary point, while non-strict inequalities (≤, ≥) do.
