A CLOSER LOOK AT Compound Inequalities We previously learned that compound inequalities are two inequalities joined by the word

"or" or "and". Sometimes you really need to think about what the inequalities are saying before you determine the solution. Example at the Zoo: A sign at the ticket booth reads "Guests that are under 3 years old and over 62 years old get free admission!" Does this make sense? If not, why? How would you change it? Explain.

Answer:

The sign at the ticket booth should read "Guests that are under 3 years old or over 62 years old get free admission!"

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound inequalities are the combination of two inequalities by the words "or" or "and".

In the given example, the compound inequality is,

Guests that are under 3 years old and over 62 years old get free admission!

The given inequality can be broken into two individual inequalities as,

Inequality 1: Guests that are under 3 years old get free admission

Inequality 2: Guests that are over 62 years old get free admission

The above two inequalities are combined by "and" in the given compound inequality.

Now, "and" signifies that both the conditions or inequalities should be fulfilled at the same time. But a guest can either be under 3 years old or he/she should be older than 62. Both the conditions cannot be fulfilled at the same time and hence, the sign doesn't make any sense.

To correct the sign, "and" should be replaced with "or".

Therefore, the corrected sign at the ticked booth should read "Guests that are under 3 years old or over 62 years old get free admission!".

Helen [10]

John made $40 commissions for $500 sales or 40/500. He wants $320 for an unknown amount of sales or 320/x.

40/500=320/x Cross multiply.

40x=160,000

Divide both sides by 40.

X=4,000

He needs his sales to be $4,000 to get $320 in commission.
