Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '>' mean?

Back

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

Front

What does the symbol '<' mean?

Back

The symbol '<' means 'less than'. For example, x < 10 means x is less than 10.

Front

What does the symbol '≥' mean?

Back

The symbol '≥' means 'greater than or equal to'. For example, x ≥ 3 means x is greater than or equal to 3.

Front

What does the symbol '≤' mean?

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'. For example, x ≤ 7 means x is less than or equal to 7.

Front

How do you solve the inequality x - 4 > 8?

Back

Add 4 to both sides: x > 12.

Front

How do you write an inequality for 'fewer than 30'?

Back

x < 30.

Front

How do you express 'more than 100' in inequality form?

Back

x > 100.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality s ÷ 5 ≥ 10?

Back

Multiply both sides by 5: s ≥ 50.

Front

How do you solve the inequality 5x > 10?

Back

Divide both sides by 5: x > 2.
