State or condition of being unequal Amartya Sen argues that virtually all political philosophies want equality of something something that has an important place in the particular theory (Sen 1992: ix) Libertarians want equal rights; others demand equal welfare or incomes Inequalities are commonly used to construct images of the world Two types of inequality are noted in this atlas: i) international inequality, that is inequality between nations, commonly measured by comparing GNP/capita; ii) national inequality, meaning differences between rich and poor within one country
a mathematical statement using "<," ">," "<=," ">=," or "<>" as the verb -- " the procedure for solving the inequality is similar to solving an equation " (106)
Unevenness; want of levelness; the alternate rising and falling of a surface; as, the inequalities of the surface of the earth, or of a marble slab, etc
4 is greater than 3 4 > 3 x is greater than or equal to 7 x 7 2 is less than 5 2 < 5 y is less than or equal to 1 y 1 Some properties of inequalities: If x > y, then: cx > cy 4x > 4y when c > 0 cx < cy -5x < -5y when c < 0 a+ x > a+ y for any a We may use these properties to solve inequalities like we solve equations Solve: 2x > 5x + 6 -3x > 6 x < -2 (solution)
Inequality is the difference in social status, wealth, or opportunity between people or groups. People are concerned about social inequality equality. inequalities an unfair situation, in which some groups in society have more money, opportunities, power etc than others equality inequality in. In mathematics, a statement of an order relationship greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to between two numbers or algebraic expressions. Inequalities can be posed either as questions, much like equations, and solved by similar techniques, or as statements of fact in the form of theorems. For example, the triangle inequality states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than or equal to the length of the remaining side. Mathematical analysis relies on many such inequalities (e.g., the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality) in the proofs of its most important theorems
A mathematical statement that one quantity is greater than or less than the other The statement s > t means that s is greater than t, while s t means that s is less than t
An inequality is like an equation that uses symbols for "less than"() where an equation uses a symbol for "is equal to" (=) So where the equation: X = Y + 5 says that "X is equal to Y plus 5", X says that "X is less than Y plus 5", and X > Y + 5 says that "X is greater than Y plus 5" Now I have a problem for you: Substitute the ? in the following expression for the correct inequality symbol: 5 ? 4
The quality of being unequal; difference, or want of equality, in any respect; lack of uniformity; disproportion; unevenness; disparity; diversity; as, an inequality in size, stature, numbers, power, distances, motions, rank, property, etc
