B Correct answer
Explanation

In JavaScript and C-style languages, the not-equal operator is !=. The correct syntax requires the variable, the operator, and the value to be in parentheses: if (i != 5). Option A reverses the operator (=! is invalid), option C uses Pascal-style <> which isn't valid in JavaScript, and option D omits both the variable and parentheses.
