Understanding Inequality Types

Inequalities compare mathematical expressions using symbols like <, >, ≤, or ≥. They help us determine relationships between values.

One-Step Inequalities require only one operation (addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division) to solve for the variable. Example: x + 3 < 7.

Two-Step Inequalities need two operations to isolate the variable. Example: 2x - 5 > 9. First, add 5 to both sides, then divide by 2.
