An inequality is similar to an equation, in that it compares two expressions. But in an equality, instead of an equal sign, you would usually use one out of the following inequality symbols:* less than
* less than or equal
* greater than
* greater than or equal

It is a statement which asserts that one expression is less than (or also equal to) another. An inequality is anti-symmetric: that is if A < B then B > A.
It is called the DOMAIN!
An Algebraic expression is any expression (equation) that contains a letter where a number should be.
An equation or inequality that expresses a resource restriction in a mathematical model is called
In solving an inequality you generally use the same methods as for solving an equation. The main difference is that when you multiply or divide each side by a negative, you have to switch the direction of the inequality sign. The solution to an equation is often a single value, but the solution to an inequality is usually an infinite set of numbers, such as x>3.
Without an inequality sign it is not an inequality equation but the given expression can be simplified to: 8x-16-7y
