You can put this solution on YOUR website! An inequality is similar, but not exactly
like an equality
Whatever you do to one side, you must
also do to the other side
---------------------
Add to both sides
Divide both sides by
---------------
The > sign means "is greater than is slightly less than ,
so it's OK for , but it's
not OK for
-----------------------
check:
This is true is greater than
but
This is false is not greater than
----------
So, works
