When two expressions are equal then it is an equation. This is indicated by putting an equals sign between them.

So, for example, all of the following are equations:

  • 2 = 2
  • 2 + 3 = 5
  • 2x + 3 = 4y - 7

For comparison, if the statement contains a less-than or greater-than symbol, it is an inequality, even if it also has an equals sign. Here are some examples:

  • 2 + 3 < 7
  • 2x >= 3y
