Inequalities and equations use similar steps to solve, but inequalities give a range of numbers that can represent the variable while an equation will give a direct answer.
Example:
4+5x=24
First you would subtract 4 or add the opposite of 4 from 24.
4+5x=24
+(-4) +(-4)
—————
5x=20
Then divide each side by 5 or multiply each side by the reciprocal of 5 to isolate the variable.
1/5*5x=20*1/5 (reciprocal)
X= 4
You would use the same steps in an inequality but end up with a different sign.
Answer:
No

Think about you have a pizza. you have 6 people and a total of 12 slices. How many can each person get? 2.
This is the same thing. $2.47 divided by 6 people = $0.46 cents each
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Investment = $5,000
Annual Interest = 5%
5000/100 x 5/1
50×5 = 250
First year interest = $250
Therefore, 250 x 20
= $5,000
It will take him 40 years.
