In mathematics, an inequation is a statement that an inequality holds between two values.[1][2] It is usually written in the form of a pair of expressions denoting the values in question, with a relational sign between them indicating the specific inequality relation. Some examples of inequations are:
In some cases, the term "inequation" can be considered synonymous to the term "inequality",[3] while in other cases, an inequation is reserved only for statements whose inequality relation is "not equal to" (≠).[2]
