Please help!!!

What is different about the solutions to an inequality (like r > -3) with that of an equation (like
= 2)?

When an answer to a question uses the greater than symbol, that means any number above the number used is a possible answer to the equation. However, when it's just a simple "x = 2", then 2 is the only possible answer to that equation. Think about it as if it were on a graph. In the attached file I have a graph that is displaying the equation "x > 4". The entire shaded area to the right of 4 could be a possible answer.

Hope this helps.
