Linear algebraic inequalities can be described as an expression with a variable >/< an expression with a variable. For example, 2x<90 so x<45.
Inequalities don't yield a particular solution, but rather solution sets. In the above example, x<45, means that the solution set is all of the values less than 45.

The same way you do for simple algebra. The complication on each side don't change the rules; you are still doing algebra.
This is a pretty simple Algebra 1 question. Compound inequalities are written almost the same way as one-step or multi-step equations, except it has a different sign. Ex: 2+3>5 Hope this works out for you!!!
Algebra vocabulary refers to the terminology and symbols used in algebraic expressions, equations, and operations. Some common algebra vocabulary includes variables, constants, coefficients, exponents, terms, equations, inequalities, functions, and graphs. Understanding and using this vocabulary is essential for solving algebraic problems and communicating mathematical ideas effectively.
Algebraic inequalities can be solved in the same fashion as algebraic equations. The goal here, as in algebraic equations, is to isolate the variable. The one thing to remember, however, is that when dividing or multiplying both sides by a negative number, one must switch the inequality sign.
To make them look more familiar and approachable to beginning algebra students. It's completely unnecessary with the advent of calculators though.
