Key Concepts

Inequalities

Inequalities are mathematical expressions that declare one quantity to be greater than, less than, or equal to another and are used to represent a range of possible values rather than a single value. They are essential for defining conditions and constraints over real numbers, such as specifying minimum and maximum acceptable measurements.

Compound Inequalities

Compound inequalities combine two or more individual inequalities to specify a range or exclusion of values. They are particularly useful when defining intervals that include all numbers between two endpoints or expressions indicating values outside a certain range, as seen when distinguishing normal from abnormal levels in a given measurement.
