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

Mathematics

Sophie [7]2 years ago

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.

James bought a cake that weighs 3 and 1 over 4 pounds. How many ounces does the cake weigh? Show your work. (5 points)
kolezko [41]

The weight of James cake in ounces is 52 ounces and the Pint of water dispensed in 20 seconds is 24 pints

<h3>Weight</h3>

  • Weight of cake = 3 1/4 pounds

1 pound = 16 ounces

Number of ounces the cake weigh = 3 1/4 pounds × 16 ounces

= 13/4 × 16

= (208) / 4

= 52 ounces

  • Water dispensed per second = 0.15 gallons
  • Number of seconds = 20 seconds

1 gallon = 4 quarts

0.15 gallon = 0.6 quarts

1 quart = 2 pints

0.6 quart = 1.2 pints

Pint of water dispensed in 20 seconds = 1.2 × 20

= 24 pints of water

Find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs have lengths 4 and 8
Irina18 [472]
Ya gotta use the Pythagorean theorem :)

a² + b² = c²      (reminder: c is the hypotenuse)

4² + 8² = c²

16 + 64 = 80

√80 = 8.94

H = 8.94
