What are equivalent inequalities?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Equivalent Inequalities are inequalities that communicate the same information.

Step by step solution

01

Step- 1- Definition of equivalent inequalities

Equivalent Inequalities are inequalities that communicate the same information.

There are a few different ways to produce equivalent inequalities.

02

Step- 2- Taking an example to understand equivalent inequalities

First, an equality is equivalent to its mirror image. Let鈥檚 see what that looks like:

x>4;4<x

Notice that one equality is essentially a backwards version of the other. The pointy part of the inequality sign is always pointing towards the 4. When this is the case, the inequalities are equivalent.

The length of a rectangle is 5 feet less than twice its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 38 feet. Let w represent the width. Write an equation for the perimeter of the rectangle in terms of w. Then solve the equation to find the length and width of the rectangle.

Driving A family is driving to Houston, Texas. A sign indicates that they are 700 miles from Houston. Their car鈥檚 trip odometer indicates that they are 400 miles from home. They are travelling at an average speed of 60 miles per hour.

  1. Write an expression for the distance (in miles) they will be from Houston in x hours.
  2. Write an expression for the distance (in miles) they will be from home in x hours.
  3. Use the expression from parts a and b to write and solve an equation to find the number of hours they will drive until they are exactly halfway between Houston and their home.
  4. Suppose they travel by local roads instead of highway. They travel the 700 miles at a speed of 45 miles per hour. How long will they drive before they are exactly halfway between Houston and their home?

The table below shows the cost of renting a moving van for one day from two companies. The daily charge and the charge per mile shown below:

  1. Calculate the miles that you have to drive before the cost of renting a van for one day from company A is less than the cost of renting a van for one day from company B. Express in inequality.
  2. Draw the graph of the inequality.
  3. Find which company is less expensive of you drive 100 miles in one day. Explain.

Amusement Parks You are trying to decide whether to pay \(120 for a season pass to an amusement park. If you buy the pass, you get an unlimited number of visits to the park and reduced parking for \)8. If you do not buy the pass, you pay \(23 admission and \)10 for parking each time you visit the park. After how many visits to the park will the cost of visiting with the season pass be less than cost of visiting without the season pass?

  1. Write a variable expression for the cost of making v visits to the park if you don鈥檛 buy a season pass.
  2. Write an inequality in terms of v showing that the cost of visiting the park with a season pass is less than the cost of visiting the park without a season pass.
  3. Solve the inequality.
