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, x < 3 means x is less than 3.

Front

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

Back

The symbol '≤' means 'less than or equal to'. For example, x ≤ 4 means x 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, x ≥ 2 means x is greater than or equal to 2.

Front

How do you solve the inequality k - 13 > -51?

Back

Add 13 to both sides: k > -38.

Front

How do you solve the inequality n + 21 < 0?

Back

Subtract 21 from both sides: n < -21.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality x + 5 ≤ 13?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides: x ≤ 8.

Front

When do you flip the inequality sign?

Back

You flip the inequality sign when you multiply or divide both sides of the inequality by a negative number.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality 3x ≥ 12?

Back

Divide both sides by 3: x ≥ 4.
