b2.1 is an expression, not an inequality.
An inequality usually represents more than one number - usually infinitely many. For example, x > 3. A single number can be the solution to a set of inequalities, for example: x >= 15 AND x
yes

3x<15?
The solution of an inequality is USUALLY a range of numbers. Here are some examples that include the number 13:x >= 13x > 0x < 100
b2.1 is an expression, not an inequality.
any number that makes the inequality true
An algebraic equation or inequality can have a solution, an algebraic expression cannot. If substituting a number in place of a variable results in the equation or inequality being a true statement, then that number is a solution of the equation or inequality.

The answer, which may not even exist, depends on the inequality. There is, for example, no greatest solution for x > 5.
Substitute the number in place of the variable, and see whether the inequality is then a true statement.
yes
solution set
Substitute the number in place of 'x' in the inequality, and see whether the statement you have then is true.
