How to Use the Inequality Calculator
- Enter your inequality in the input field. Use the format:
ax + b < c(or>,<=,>=,=). Examples:2x + 3 > 53x < 94x - 2 <= 10
- Click "Solve" (or press Enter).
- View the result:
- The solution appears in green (e.g.,
x > 1). - Below it, step-by-step work shows how the inequality was solved.
- The solution appears in green (e.g.,
- If an error occurs, a red message will explain the issue (e.g., invalid format or zero coefficient).
Note: The calculator supports simple linear inequalities with one variable (x). Use decimal numbers if needed (e.g., 1.5x + 2 <= 7).

Frequently Asked Questions
It solves linear inequalities in one variable, such as ax + b < c, ax + b > c, ax + b <= c, ax + b >= c, and also equalities.
Use the format: coefficient*x + constant < number. For example, 2x + 3 > 5. You can also omit the constant (e.g., 3x < 9).
An error message will appear indicating the correct format. Make sure to use x as the variable and standard inequality symbols.
