Formula and explanation
Inequalities of the form ax + b > 0, ax + b < 0, ax + b ≥ 0, or ax + b ≤ 0, where a e 0. Applicable conditions: a, b are real numbers, a eq 0, x is the unknown. Explanation: This is the most basic form of inequality. The solution method is similar to that of a linear equation, but attention must be paid to the direction of the inequality sign.
