Eating from the inside cover of the first book to the back cover of the last boook, will take the bookworm 25 full books (that is from B to Z) and for book A, the total distance should be subtracted by 1/4 (that is the length of the inside cover)
                          total distance covered = (2)(25) + (2 - 1/4)
The answer to the equation above is,
                           total distance covered = 51.75 inches

 Solve the system of inequalities and indicate all the integers which are in the solution set:

1.) a>10
2.) a<3.5
How I got it: 1.) Subtract 3 from both sides, leaving -2a<10.
2.) Divide by -2 from both sides, remember to flip the inequality sign when dealing with negatives. This leaves you with a>10.
For number 2.) I divided both sides by 5, leaving a<3.5, though this answer may be wrong.
