Front

How can you determine if a point is a solution to a system of linear equations?

Back

Substitute the point into each equation; if it satisfies all equations, it is a solution.

Front

What is an inequality?

Back

A mathematical statement that compares two expressions using symbols like <, >, ≤, or ≥.
