Formulas and Key Relations

Core Ideas

x = 5

x < 7

x > 5

ax + b > 0, ax + b < 0, ax + b ≥ 0, ax + b ≤ 0

Properties of Inequations

a > b ⇒ a + c > b + c

a < b ⇒ a + c < b + c

a > b ⇒ a - c > b - c

a < b ⇒ a - c < b - c

a > b and c > 0 ⇒ a·c > b·c

A linear inequation has the form ax + b > 0, ax + b < 0, ax + b ≥ 0, or ax + b ≤ 0.

Key relations

Examples include x = 5, 3x = 7, and 2x - 5 = 10.

If a and b are real numbers and a ≠ 0, then statements of the form ax + b > 0, ax + b < 0, ax + b ≥ 0, and ax + b ≤ 0 are linear inequations.
