What is an inequality?

Back

An inequality is a mathematical statement that compares two expressions using inequality symbols such as <, >, ≤, or ≥.

Front

What does the symbol '>' mean in inequalities?

Back

The symbol '>' means 'greater than'. For example, x > 5 means x is greater than 5.

Front

What does the symbol '<' mean in inequalities?

Back

The symbol '<' means 'less than'. For example, x < 3 means x is less than 3.

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean in inequalities?

Back

The symbol '≥' means 'greater than or equal to'. For example, x ≥ 4 means x is greater than or equal to 4.

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean in inequalities?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'. For example, x ≤ 2 means x is less than or equal to 2.

How do you solve the inequality -9h > -63?

Back

Divide both sides by -9 and reverse the inequality sign: h < 7.

Front

How do you solve the inequality -8x < 48?

Back

Divide both sides by -8 and reverse the inequality sign: x > -6.

Front

How do you solve the inequality x + 5 ≤ 13?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides: x ≤ 8.

Front

How do you solve the inequality z ≤ 9?

Back

This inequality states that z can be any number less than or equal to 9.
