Answer:

C - an equation includes an equal sign, but an inequality doesn't

Explanation:

Although both equations and inequalities are ways to show how expressions relate to one another, an equation is the relationship between expressions with an equals sign (
= ) between them, however, an inequality is a way to express two or more expressions with
<,
\leq,
> or
\geq between them. They both include numbers, so the correct option is C.

Hope this helps :)
