In an inequality, you have to shade a side of a line to see show if the possible answers are greater than or equal to it
To solve a linear equation or inequality, first isolate the variable on one side of the equation or inequality. For an equation, use operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division to simplify until the variable is alone (e.g., (ax + b = c) becomes (x = (c-b)/a)). For an inequality, follow similar steps but remember to reverse the inequality sign if you multiply or divide by a negative number. Finally, express the solution in interval notation or as a graph on a number line, depending on the context.
They are alike in that you graph the lines in the same way, but they are different because you have to shade in one side of the line
An equation is a mathematical that asserts theequality of two expressions. An inequality is a relation that holds between two values when they are different.
Linear means that the largest power(index) in the expression, equation, inequality etc, =1
A linear equation represents a line. A linear inequality represents part of the space on one side (or the other) of the line defined by the corresponding equation.

They are not. An inequality cannot, by definition, be the same as an equation.
If the equal sign in a linear equation in two variables is replaced with an inequality symbol, the result is a linear inequality in two variables. 3x-2y>7 x<-5
A linear inequalty may be of the form a1x1 + a2x2 + ... + anxn < bwhere the ai and b are constants and the xi are variables. The inequality symbol can be <, >, ≤ or ≥.
It is easiest to describe the difference in terms of coordinate geometry. A linear equation defines a straight line in the coordinate plane. Every point on the line satisfies the equation and no other points do. For a linear inequality, first consider the corresponding linear equality (or equation). That defines a straight line which divides the plane into two. Depending on the direction of the inequality, all points on one side of the line or the other satisfy the equation, and no point from the other side of the line does. If it is a strict inequality (< or >) then points on the line itself are excluded while if the inequality is not strict (≤or ≥) then points on the line are included.

A linear inequality is all of one side of a plane. A quadratic inequality is either the inside of a parabola or the outside.
Linear inequalities are equations, but instead of an equal sign, it has either a greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or a less than or equal to sign. Both can be graphed. Solving linear equations mainly differs from solving linear inequalities in the form of the solution. 1. Linear equation. For each linear equation in x, there is only one value of x (solution) that makes the equation true. The equation: x - 3 = 7 has one solution, that is x = 10. The equation: 3x + 4 = 13 has one solution that is x = 3. 2. Linear inequality. On the contrary, a linear inequality has an infinity of solutions, meaning there is an infinity of value of x that make the inequality true. All these x values constitute the "solution set" of the inequality. The answers of a linear inequality are expressed in the form of intervals. The linear inequality x + 5 < 9 has as solution: x < 4. The solution set of this inequality is the interval (-infinity, 4) The inequality 4x - 3 > 5 has as solution x > 2. The solution set is the interval (2, +infinity). The intervals can be open, closed, and half closed. The open interval (1, 4) ; the 2 endpoints 1 and 4 are not included in the solution set. The closed interval [-2, 5] ; the 2 end points -2 and 5 are included. The half-closed interval [3, +infinity) ; the end point 3 is included.
