Recall the discussion on all the strange ideas for what could be done to both sides of an equation. let’s explore some of the same issues here but with inequalities. recall, in this lesson, we have established that adding (or subtracting) and multiplying through by positive quantities does not change the solution set of an inequality. we’ve made no comment about other operations.
a. squaring: do ≤6 and ²≤36 have the same solution set? if not, give an example of a number that is in one solution set but not the other.
