Rachel received $650 for her birthday. she purchased a surfboard for $477 and some additional accessories without spending more than the money she received. she wrote the inequality 477 x < 650. is the inequality correct? yes, because 477 and an unknown amount is less than 650. no, because 477 and an unknown amount is greater than 650. no, because the inequality symbol should be less than or equal to 650. no, because x should be subtracted from 477.

An inequality is a mathematical connection between two expressions and is expressed using one of the following: "less than or equal to," "less than," or "not equal to."

The five inequality symbols used in mathematics are greater than symbol (>), less than symbol (<), greater than or equal to symbol (≥), less than or equal to symbol (≤), and not equal to symbol (≠).

Amount Rachel received as a birthday gift = $650

cost of the surfboard = $477

Let's say that you spent x on extra accessories.

total expenditure = 477 + x

The inequality sign between the amount spent and the total amount received will be less than or equal if she doesn't spend more than she received.

The equation will therefore be 477 + x ≤650

Rachel's inequality is false.
