You solve an inequality the same way you solve an equality. You add and subtract, multiply and divide, both sides by the same value in order to isolate one of the variables. The only extra thing you need to remember is that if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must reverse the order of the inequality, i.e. less than or equal becomes greater than or equal.
This is called an inequality. If x squared is greater than or equal to 49, then x is plus or minus 7 or greater than plus 7 or less than - 7.
It depends on the specific inequality. In the simplest cases, it is solved just like an equation; except that you must be careful when multiplying and dividing - if you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, you must switch the inequality sign. For instance, a "less-than" sign would be changed to a "greater-than" sign.
The sign is "greater than or equal to" or ≥
p is less than 12.

First of all, that's not an inequality. Inequalities have a a less than, equal to, greater than, greater than or equal to, or less then of equal to. But any way, the solution would be this: 3t + 5(-4) 3t+(-20) There you go, hope you liked it!
This cannot be solved. Just like an equation, an inequality has to have at least one variable and at least one operator, such as less than, greater than, etc. Yours has no operator. Please restate your question.
The inequality is: x+2y > 4
Copy it just as you typed it, replacing some words with symbols: Replace "plus" with "+" Replace "greater than" with ">"
An inequality has no magnitude. A number can be greater than or equal to -5, but not an inequality.
I assume you mean "inequality". An equation has an equal sign; an inequality has one of the inequality signs instead of an equal sign. These signs are: * Greater than * Greater than or equal * Less than * Less than or equal To solve an inequality, the main point to consider is that if you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, you must invert the inequality sign. For example, if you multiply both sides by (-2), a greater-than sign would need to be changed to a less-than sign.
To solve the inequality 2t + 1 > 7, we need to isolate the variable t. First, subtract 1 from both sides which gives 2t > 6. Then, divide both sides by 2 to get t > 3. Therefore, t must be greater than 3 for the inequality to hold true.
An inequality requires an inequality sign, usually "less than", "less-than-or-equal", "greater than", or "greater than or equal". Assuming one of these inequality signs is between the "4x" and the "12", for example: 4x < 12, just divide both sides by 4. Just as when you solve equations, the idea is to isolate the variable on one side.
