Not always. Specifically, you switch the sign when you multiply or divide both sides of the inequality BY A NEGATIVE NUMBER. Example:4 > 3
Multiplying by -2:
-8 < -6
equations have an = sign, inequalities do not
The main difference is that when solving inequalities, if you multiply or divide by a negative number you have to be careful, since you then also have to switch the sign (for example, change a "less-than" sign to a "greater-than" sign). If you multiply or divide by an expression that contains a variable, you have to consider the two cases: that such an expression might be positive, or that it might be negative.
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.
Compound inequalities are inequalities that have more than one sign, for example, 5
Since there is no inequality sign, those are not inequalities. An inequality sign is normally one of the following: greater than; less than; great-or-equal; less-than-or-equal.

Somewhat, but the rules are a bit different for inequalities. Example. -2X > 4 X < - 2 See, sign changes when dividing by negative coefficient.
Inequalities and equations are both the same because they are both mathematical expression and they both use the same steps EXCEPT for the end. Inequalities and equations are both different because equations have an equal sign, the answer is not an interval, and the answer is a specific answer. Not a range. While inequalities don't have an equal sign, its answer is an interval, and it's answer is in a range.
Multi-step inequalities are mathematical statements that involve inequalities with more than one operation to solve for a variable. They typically require several steps, such as adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing, while also applying the rules of inequalities, such as reversing the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number. These inequalities can represent a range of values for the variable that satisfy the given condition. Solving multi-step inequalities helps in understanding relationships and constraints in various mathematical and real-world contexts.
Instead of using y = mx + b you use y (inequality sign) mx + b. By inequality sign, I mean symbols like
Privileged mode (will turn into a # sign after the router name instead of the > sign it has upon startup.
Inequalities are not reflexive. Inequalities are not commutative.
