1. The problem asks to compare the two expressions and insert the correct inequality symbol (> , < , or =). 2. The expressions are not visible as text, but based on the user's selection "=", we will verify if the two expressions are equal. 3. To compare, we need to simplify or evaluate both expressions. 4. Since the expressions are not provided in text, we cannot perform algebraic simplification here. 5. If the expressions are equal, the correct symbol is "=". 6. If one is greater than the other, use ">" or "<" accordingly. Since the user selected "=", and no expressions are provided, we accept the equality as the answer. Final answer: =
