In the next activity, you will see the differences between mathematical expressions, linear equations, and inequalities.
ACTIVITY 3: Spot the Difference!
Direction: Below are two sets of mathematical statements. Use these to answer the
questions and statements that follow.
Set A
Set B
y = 5x-1
2x + y = 4
y > 5x - 1
2x + y<4
9 + 5y = 3.7
9 + 5y 3x
y=2x-6
5y - 10 = 2x
I < 2x-6
sy- 10<2
1. Describe the mathematical statements in each set.
2. Differentiate 5x - 1 from y = 5x – 1. How about 5y - 10 and 5y - 10 = 2r?
3. Differentiate mathematical expressions from mathematical equations.
4. Which of the given sets is the set of mathematical equations? How about the
set of inequalities?
5. Differentiate mathematical equations from inequalities.​
