What is an inequality?

A mathematical statement that contrasts the relative sizes of two expressions is called an inequality. An inequality indicates that one expression is greater than, less than, or equal to the other, as opposed to saying that two expressions are equal, as in an equation.

Solving inequalities involves finding the set of values for the variable(s) that make the inequality true.

Let the missing number be t

t + 13 ≥ 27

t ≥ 27 - 13

t ≥14
