<span>The tortoise crawls the whole 1000 m at 0.2 m/s, therefore, you must divide the distance by the rate of travel to find the time it took to complete the race. This gives us a time of 5,000 seconds to crawl the thousand meters. The hare runs the first 200 meters at 2 m/s, meaning that takes 100 seconds. The last 800 meters divided by the speed of 3 m/s gives us a time of 266 seconds. These two numbers must be added to the hare's rest time, converted from 1.3 hours into seconds by multiplying that number by 60 (for minutes in an hour) then 60 again (for seconds in a minute). 1.3 hours is equal to 4680 seconds. Therefore, the whole race took the hare 5,046 seconds, making it slightly slower than the hare, who finished in 5,000 seconds flat.</span>

What is the difference between the number of solutions for a two-step equation and for a two-step inequality
Sophie [7]

Answer:

A two-step equation is something like:

A*X + B = C

In this case, like in a linear equation, we have only one solution that can be found as:

A*X = C - B

X = (C - B)/A

In the case of a two-step inequality, we have something like:

A*X + B > C

Solving this we get;

A*X >  C - B

X > (C - B)/A

In this case, any value of X that is larger than  (C - B)/A is a solution, so in this case, we have infinite solutions.

That is the difference between the number of solutions for each case, in a two-step equation we have only one, while in the case of the inequality we have infinite.
