What is an inequality?

Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '>' mean in an inequality?

Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '<' mean in an inequality?

Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean in an inequality?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'. For example, z ≤ 4 means z is less than or equal to 4.

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean in an inequality?

Back

The symbol '≥' means 'greater than or equal to'. For example, a ≥ 7 means a is greater than or equal to 7.

How do you solve the inequality 15 > -5 + z?

Back

To solve, add 5 to both sides: 15 + 5 > z, which simplifies to z < 20.

Front

How do you solve the inequality y - 13 ≤ -15?

Back

To solve, add 13 to both sides: y ≤ -15 + 13, which simplifies to y ≤ -2.

Front

How do you solve the inequality x + 5 > 7?

Back

To solve, subtract 5 from both sides: x > 7 - 5, which simplifies to x > 2.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality x - 41 > 22?

Back

To solve, add 41 to both sides: x > 22 + 41, which simplifies to x > 63.

Front

When graphing an inequality, what does an open dot represent?

Back

An open dot represents that the number is not included in the solution, used for < and >.
