Symbol notation

  • < means "less than".
  • > means "greater than".
  • ≤ means "less than or equal to".
  • ≥ means "greater than or equal to".
  • = means "equals".

A negative real number is any real number that is less than zero.

A positive real number is any real number that is greater than zero.

Zero is neither positive nor negative.

(a) The negative of z is not greater than 6

If the negative of z is not greater than 6, then it is less than or equal to 6.

-z ≤ 6.

(b) The negative of m is not less than -6

If the negative of z is not less than -6, then it is greater than or equal to -6.

-m ≥ -6.
