Usually, you create the inequality by casting the problem statement into mathematical terms. Then, solving the inequality can answer the question posed by the problem statement.
Example:
I want to carpet my 1600 ft² house, but I can only afford to spend $3000. Tax and installation costs are expected to add 20% to the total cost of the carpet. What price range of carpet should I be looking at in term of dollars per square yard?
Solution:
Let p represent the price per square yard of carpet. The problem statement tells me
(1600 ft²)×((1 yd)/(3 ft))²×p×(1 + 0.20) ≤ $3000 . . . . . created inequality
p×((1600×1.20)/9 yd²) ≤ $3000 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify left side
p ≤ $14.06/yd²
I can afford carpet that costs less than $14.06 per square yard.
Answer:
<ABC = 27
< BAC = 126
Step-by-step explanation:
<C = <B since it is an isosceles triangle. We know this since AC - AB
<C = 27 so <ABC = 27
The sum of the angles of a triangle = 180
A + B+ C = 180
A + 27+27 = 180
A + 54 =180
A = 180-54
A =126
< BAC = 126
