For example, consider the inequality x+4&gt;12, where x is a real number. First, one needs to find the x and verify that it is actually a solution. The answer will be x&gt;8 and it is a true statement. This expression is about the location of x within the set of real numbers. A number line is one way to show the location relative to all other real numbers.(See figure Inequality 1)
