How is solving an inequality like solving an equation? How is it different?

Answer:

The only difference is: If you multiply or divide both sides of an equation by the same negative number, the equation remains the same, but If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by the same negative number, the inequality reverses.

A phone company charges $0.06 per minute for local calls and $0.15 per minute for international calls. When your bill comes, it
solmaris [256]
Let's assume two variables x and y which represent the local and international calls respectively. 

x + y = 852 = total number of minutes which were consumed by the company (equation 1)
0.06*x+ 0.15 y =69.84 = total price which was charged for the phone calls (Equation 2)
 from equation 1:-
x=852 -y (sub in equation 2)
0.06 (852 - y) + 0.15 y =69.84

51.12 -0.06 y +0.15 y =69.84 (subtracting both sides by 51.12)
0.09 y =18.74
y= 208 minutes = international minutes (sub in 1) 
208+x=852 (By subtracting both sides by 208)
x = 852-208 = 644 minutes = local minutes

Given : m∠A = 50

m∠BCD = 180 - (m∠BDC + m∠DBC)
