A linear inequality in one variable can be put into one of the following forms, a x + b > 0 (*) ora x + b ≥ 0, (**) where a and b are constants (a ≠ 0); x is the variable. Inequality (*) is called a strict inequality, while inequality (**) is an unstrict inequality. The only difference between them is whether the endpoint of the interval is included in the solution set or not. The solution set for inequality (*): The solution set for inequality (**): |
