Question

Attila the Hun was a ruler of the Hunnic Empire. The Romans feared him greatly until his death since he made quite a habit of invading. The Romans no longer feared him after his death in 453. Let x represent any year. Write an inequality in terms of x and 453 that is true only for values of x that represent years after the year that Attila died.

Answer 1

The inequality would be x > 453 because any year after he died would be more than the year he died. 
Also, if it helps, I think of inequalities as an alligator's mouth, trying to eat the bigger quantity. 
Hope this helps!
