What is the difference between inequalities and equations using adding?
equations have an = sign, inequalities do not
What are some differences between equations and inequalities?
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.
How do you solve algebra inequalities?
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.
What is compound inequalities?
Compound inequalities are inequalities that have more than one sign, for example, 5
What are all the solution to this system of inequalities. y5x-2 y5x 3?
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.
