A statement that contains at least one of the symbols <, >, is called
Correct answer: B. an inequality
- A. an equation
- B. an inequality
- C. both a and b
- D. None
Explanation
A statement that contains at least one of the symbols < (less than), > (greater than), ≤ (less than or equal to), or ≥ (greater than or equal to) is called an inequality. Inequalities express a relationship between two quantities that are not necessarily equal.

About Linear Equations
Linear equations contain variables only to the first power and produce straight-line relationships when represented graphically. Problems involve solving equations with brackets, fractions, and variables on both sides, forming equations from statements, and handling simultaneous linear equations, which differ from quadratic equations by having no squared variable.
