allerySolving an inequation means finding
AThe squared value of the variable in the inequation
BA single value at which both sides become equal
CThe set of all values of the variable that satisfy it
DTwo distinct values of the variable in the inequation
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. The set of all values of the variable that satisfy it
1. The chapter contrasts solving an equation with solving an inequation.
2. An inequation usually has a whole range (set) of solutions.
3. The solution set is the set of all values that satisfy it.
4. So option A is correct.
