Answer 1

Do you know what an inequality is?

Answer 2

I think so

Answer 3

Which of these are inequalities, then?

Answer 4

B?

Answer 5

No, B says exactly what \(a+6\) equals, so it's an equation :)

Answer 6

Oh

Answer 7

What about A, C, and D?

Answer 8

Hmm.. A?

Answer 9

Sorry, I suck at this, I'm just now studying this.

Answer 10

An inequality is when it gives you criteria your answer must match, so A is right :) Are there any other inequalities?

Answer 11

I don't think so.

Answer 12

C is an inequality, because 4+c \(must\) be greater than 1 :)

Answer 13

Thanks! :)

Answer 14

And an expression is like a statement, while an equation is a question. An equation asks for an answer, while an expression just states the numbers, like D. No, that's fine haha.

Answer 15

Thanks!
