Why is it helpful to rewrite inequalities

Mathematics
1 answer:
mr_godi [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  that puts the solution in the form ...

     variable is ...

Step-by-step explanation:

It isn't always.

__

Often, we like to have a solution be in the form ...

  variable is ...

So, for an inequality, that puts the variable on the left:

  x > 3

  y < 27

__

Personally, I like to see the answer in a form that has the variable and its values in the same relation as on a number line. This means, my preferred inequality symbols are < or ≤, since those have the smaller numbers on the left. I would write the first example above as ...

  3 < x

showing that the shaded portion of the number line (representing possible values of the variable) is to the right of the open circle at 3. For me, it is more mental effort to translate x > 3 to the same image.

__

The forms we choose to use are all about making communication as easy as possible.

the area of a rectangular patio is represented by the expression 6x^2+13-5. the width of the patio is (3x-1) write an expression
jok3333 [9.3K]

<span>I think you meant 6x²+13x-5 so first thing we have to do is factor it which is really quite tricky with this kind of trinomial so first take ac which is 6 times -5 so -30 now figure out factors of -30 that will add up to 13 how about 15 and -2 now that we have the factors write the equation again</span>

<span /><span> 6x²+15x-2x-5  </span>split the equation in half<span />

<span>6x²+15x   -2x-5 so out of the first equation we can pull a 3x out</span>

<span>3x(2x+5) and out of the second we can pull a negative 1</span>

<span>3x(2x+5) -1(2x+5) rewrite it</span>

<span>(3x-1)(2x+5) so the 3x-1 is the factor we already had so the other side is (2x+5)</span>

<span>

Combine like terms to create an equivalent expression.
Brut [27]

Question..

Combine like terms to create an equivalent expression.

½ −⅙q +⅚q - ⅓

Answer:

½ −⅙q +⅚q - ⅓ is equivalent to ⅔q + ⅙

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

½ −⅙q +⅚q - ⅓

Required

Equivalence

½ −⅙q +⅚q - ⅓

We start by collecting like terms.

⅚q - ⅙q + ½ - ⅓

Factorize

(⅚ - ⅙)q + ½ - ⅓

((5 - 1)/6)q + ½ - ⅓

(4/6)q + ½ - ⅓

Reduce 4/6 to lowest term

⅔q + ½ - ⅓

Evaluate fraction

⅔q + (3 - 2)/6

⅔q + ⅙

Hence, ½ −⅙q +⅚q - ⅓ is equivalent to ⅔q + ⅙

How are percent error and percent change similar
mihalych1998 [28]
Percent Change = New Value − Old Value|Old Value| × 100%

Example: There were 200 customers yesterday, and 240 today:

240 − 200|200|× 100% = 40200 × 100% = 20%

A 20% increase.

 

Percent Error = |Approximate Value − Exact Value||Exact Value| × 100%

Example: I thought 70 people would turn up to the concert, but in fact 80 did!

|70 − 80||80| × 100% = 1080 × 100% = 12.5%

I was in error by 12.5%

(Without using the absolute value, the error is −12.5%, meaning I under-estimated the value)

The difference between the two is that one states factual calculations and the other is a theoretical guess
