Question
Write an inequality to represent the following:
Any number greater than 5
- x > 5
- x ≥ 5
- x < 5
- x ≤ 5
Hint:
An inequality is a relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers or other mathematical expressions.
The correct answer is: x > 5
We have to write an expression for a number greater than 5.
Let the number be x. Then,
x > 5.
Hence, the correct option is B.
It is used most often to compare two numbers on the number line by their size.

What is the solution of 0.2 x -4 - 2x < - 0.4 and 3x + 2.7 <3 ?
We have to follow the rules of inequalities to solve such questions. We have to swap the inequality when we divide it or multiply it by a negative number. In such questions, we find the values of the variables which makes the statement of inequalities true.
