Equalities will have the words "is" or "equals" or "the same as" in the wording. These produce a unique solution.
Inequalities have phrases like "at most" or "at least" or "no more than" in them. Solutions are a range of values, ranging between 2 values, or from a particular value to positive or negative infinity.
Answer:
40 students
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, one is given the ratio ( 8 : 3 ), since a ratio is another way of writing a fraction one can rewrite it as; 
(8) represent the number of students who want to learn about magnets, and (3) represents the number of students who want to learn about magic tricks.
In the problem, it is also given that 25 more students wanted to learn about magnets compared to magic tricks. If one uses the parameter (x) to represent the factor by which the fraction is reduced, then one can get the equation;
8x = 3x + 25
Use inverse operations to solve,
8x = 3x + 25
-3x
5x = 25
/5
x = 5
Substitute back in to find out how many students want to learn about magnets,
8x
= 8(5)
= 40
The answer to this question would be: <span>rotating it 90° counterclockwise.
When you rotate up an object 360</span>°, it will revert into its original places. That mean, if you rotate it more than 180°, then rotating it to the opposite direction will be easier/closer than you do. In this case, you rotate the polygon 270° so it will equal to 360° - 270°= 90° of opposite direction, which means counterclockwise. The quadrant shouldn't have any meaning in this question.
Answer:
3.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Ediburgh -------------------------------350 miles-------------------------London
Let the distance traveled by train from Edin to London be "x"
hence the distance traveled by train from London to Edin would be "350-x"
- The rate of Edin to London train is 60
- The rate of London to Edin train is 40
Let the time they meet be"t"
Now, we know distance formula to be D = RT
Where
D is distance
R is rate
and
T is time
<u>Train from Edin to London:</u>
x = 60t
<u>Train from London to Edin:</u>
350-x = 40t
Solving for x:
350 - 40t = x
We put this into first equation:
x = 60t
350 - 40t = 60t
350 = 100t
t = 350/100
t = 3.5
They meet after 3.5 hours
