An inequality is also an algebraic equation. However, instead of '=' sign, it uses either of these: <, >, ≤, ≥. To translate: <span>X differs from 2 by more than 3, that would be:
2 - x > 3 We use the '>' equation because the open area should face the larger value. Solving the equation: -x > 3 - 2 -x > 1 x > -1</span>
