Question

Problem solving.When two expressions are not equivalent, you can use an inequality symbol to show their relationship. Do you ever use an inequality symbol when two expressions are equivalent? Use an example in your explanation.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

When two expressions are not equivalent, you can use an inequality symbol

`\begin{gathered} \leq\Rightarrow less\text{ or equal } \\ \ge\Rightarrow greater\text{ or equal } \\ >\Rightarrow greater\text{ than } \\ <\Rightarrow smaller\text{ than} \end{gathered}`

now, when comparing two expressions that are equivalent , WE CAN NOT USE an inequality simbol, instead of we need to use The equals sign or equal sign formerly known as the equality sign

`=`

for example

`3x+19x=30x-8x`

the = symbold indicates that both sides have the same value ( rigth and left)

I hope this helps you
