  2. Inequality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inequality_(mathematics)

    The feasible regions of linear programming are defined by a set of inequalities. In mathematics, an inequality is a relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers or other mathematical expressions. [1] It is used most often to compare two numbers on the number line by their size.

  3. Linear inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_inequality

    The line that determines the half-planes (ax + by = c) is not included in the solution set when the inequality is strict. A simple procedure to determine which half-plane is in the solution set is to calculate the value of ax + by at a point ( x 0 , y 0 ) which is not on the line and observe whether or not the inequality is satisfied.

  4. Number line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_line

    The order of the natural numbers shown on the number line. A number line is a graphical representation of a straight line that serves as spatial representation of numbers, usually graduated like a ruler with a particular origin point representing the number zero and evenly spaced marks in either direction representing integers, imagined to extend infinitely.

    Bennett's inequality, an upper bound on the probability that the sum of independent random variables deviates from its expected value by more than any specified amount Bhatia–Davis inequality , an upper bound on the variance of any bounded probability distribution

  7. Maclaurin's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maclaurin's_inequality

    Maclaurin's inequality is the following chain of inequalities: with equality if and only if all the are equal. For n = 2 {\displaystyle n=2} , this gives the usual inequality of arithmetic and geometric means of two non-negative numbers.

  8. Interval (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_(mathematics)

    The addition x + a on the number line. All numbers greater than x and less than x + a fall within that open interval. In mathematics, a real interval is the set of all real numbers lying between two fixed endpoints with no "gaps". Each endpoint is either a real number or positive or negative infinity, indicating the interval extends without a ...

  9. Constraint (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_(mathematics)

    If an inequality constraint holds as a strict inequality at the optimal point (that is, does not hold with equality), the constraint is said to be non-binding, as the point could be varied in the direction of the constraint, although it would not be optimal to do so. Under certain conditions, as for example in convex optimization, if a ...
