As for example 2 < 8 means that 2 is less than 8 but 8 > 2 means that 8 is greater than 2

When you divide both sides of any inequality by a negative number you need to what the inequality symbol?

Flip it around


When you multiply both sides of any inequality by a negative number you need to the inequality symbol?

When an Inequality expression is multiplied (or divided) by a negative number then the Inequality sign is reversed. Example : -9x &lt; 18 : -x &lt; 2 : x &gt; -2........as both sides have been multiplied by -1.


What is the definition of a solution to an inequality?

any number that makes the inequality true


Is x equals 0 a mathematical sentence?

What do you mean by a "mathematical sentence"? In some practice in analysis (Calculus stuff), we call a statement a sentence if it looks like one or any combination of the following: "For all a in set A, condition P(a) is true/false" "There exist some (or unique) a in set A where P(a) is true/false" So in that practice, your statement is NOT a sentence, but if you phrase it "There exist a unique x in our set where x = 0 is true" or simply "There exist a unique element x where x = 0" It would be a sentence. BUT, I am pretty sure what I am talking about is not the same "mathematical sentence" as yours.


14 is less than twice the value of x?

The mathematical inequality that represents the relationship described is 14 &lt; 2x. This inequality states that the value of 14 is less than twice the value of x. To solve for x, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 2 to isolate x, giving us x &gt; 7. Therefore, any value of x greater than 7 will satisfy the given condition.
