Activity 1: EXPRESS YOURSELFI
Directions: Shown below are two sets of mathematical statements. Use these to
answer the questions that follow.
y = 2x = 1
y > 2x = 1
3x + 4y = 15
10 - 5y = 7x
3x + 4y < 15
10 - 5 2 7x
y = 6x + 12
9y - 8 = 4x
y s 6x + 12
9y -8 < 4x
Questions:
1. How do you describe the mathematical statements in each set?
2. What do you call the left member and the right member of each mathematical
statement?
3. How do you differentiate 2x + 1 from y = 2x + 1? How about 9y - 8 and 9y - 8 =
4x?
4. How would you differentiate mathematical expressions from mathematical
equations?
5. Give at least three examples of mathematical expressions and mathematical
equations.
6. Compare the two sets of mathematical statements. What statements can you
make?
7. Which of the given sets is the set of mathematical equations? How about the set
of inequalities?
8. How do you differentiate mathematical equations from inequalities?
9. Give at least three examples of mathematical equations and inequalities.

Step-by-step explanation:
LINEAR EQUATION
→ From the word "equa" in equation means equal.So, the only symbol that we will be using here is only equals.
LINEAR INEQUALITY:
→ From the "inequal" you can already say that it is not equal. It only mean that the symbol that we would use here are >, <, > or equal to,<or equal to.

ps. 6 and 8 has no symbol. <3
