Question

Drag each blue point to a place on the number line indicating a number that is less than -3 or greater than 2. (Place one where you think none of your classmates will.)

Answer 1

A number line indicating a number that is less than -3 or greater than 2 is shown in the image attached below.

In Mathematics, an inequality is a relation that compares two or more numbers and variables in an algebraic equation based on any of the following inequality symbols:

• Less than or equal to (≤).
• Greater than (>).
• Greater than or equal to (≥).
• Less than (<).

Based on the information provided above, we can logicaly deduce that an example of an inequality that represents a number that is less than -3 or greater than 2 can be written as follows as follows;

x < -3 (x represents all real numbers that are less than -3).

x > 2 (x represents all real numbers that are greater than 2).
