• Remembering the quadratic formula

What mnemonic is suggested for remembering 'less than' inequalities?

• Less than is 'or'

• Less than is 'but'

• Less than is 'and'

• Less than is 'not'

In a geometric interpretation, what does the distance between two numbers represent?

• The distance between the numbers

• The difference between the numbers

• The product of the numbers

• The sum of the numbers

What is the geometric interpretation of 'less than' inequalities?

• Further from a number

• Closer to a number

• Not equal to a number

• Equal to a number

How is a 'less than' absolute value inequality solved algebraically?
