inequality?
Q. normal body temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Write an inequality that describes the temperature T in degrees Fahrenheit of people with above normal temperature. how to write an inequality for this? explain.
Asked by crayola - Mon Jan 7 21:04:42 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The inequality would be values of T greater than 98.6... T > 98.6 It's really that simple.

A. a quadratic inequality of the form -ax^2 + bx + c => 0, where b^2 - 4ac => 0 satisfies your conditions. I put b^2 - 4ac => 0 because that ensures that the function f(x) = -ax^2 + bx + c has real roots. the graph of f(x) = -ax^2 + bx + c opens downward. so, f(x) => 0 only for values of x between its roots. so, the solutions of -ax^2 + bx + c => 0 lie between its roots, making them a closed interval. another form of quadratic inequality ax^2 + bx + c <= 0 , where b^2 - 4ac => 0 also has a closed interval solution set. 2) the quadratic inequality, ax^2 + bx + c <= 0 where b^2 - 4ac < 0 has an empty solution set. under the same conditions, -ax^2 + bx + c => 0 also has an empty solution set.

What are your thoughts of racial and ethnic inequality?
Q. Im doing a project for my sociology class. I have to come up with the problem and a hypothesis. What do you guys think of this, does it make sense? And what are your thoughts of racial and ethnic inequality? Define the problem: Different racial and ethnic groups are unequal in resources, power and prestige. Hypothesis: Based on our research, we hypothesize that racial inequality has been annihilated on paper and the way we socialize, but not ideology.

When graphing a nonlinear inequality does the line has to be dashed?
Q. The line of a graph from an inequality must be dashed if its greater than or equal ; or less than or equal. But if its a nonlinear inequality; does it have to be dashed or its always solid?

A. If the inequality is '>' or '<' then the graph line is dashed. If the inequality is '=>' or '<=' then the graph line is continuous. It does not matter if the function is linear or non-linear.

How to write an inequality from a word problem?
Q. We are doing a review about inequalities and I was doing just fine until I go to this problem. "Devon tosses a horseshoe at a stake 30 feet away. The horseshoe lands no more than 3 feet from the stake. (a) Write an absolute value inequality that represents the range of distances that the horseshoe travels. (b) Solve the inequality." I can solve the inequality no problem, but I can't think of a way to write this. I am sure it is easy, but I just can't think of anything right now. Any help would be great. Thanks to anyone who answers.

A. Since the horseshoe is no more than 3 ft from the stake, it has traveled between 27 and 33 feet. THAT would be the answer, though. The inequality would look like this: -3 < x - 30 < 3 and, you see, if you add 30 to each part, you get: 27 < x < 33 which is correct. that's it! ;)

How do you know the value of a solution for an inequality?
Q. How do you know if a value is a solution for an inequality? How is this different from determining if a value is a solution to an equation? If you replace the equal sign of an equation with an inequality sign, is there ever a time when the same value will be a solution to both the equation and inequality? Write an inequality and provide a value. Your value may either be a solution or not be a solution to your inequality.

A. A value is a solution for an inequality if it makes the statement true. For example, if you have x + 3 > 9, then 15 would be a solution since 15 + 3 > 9. If you replace an = sign with a > or < sign, then there would never be a time when the solution to the equation would be the same as the inequality. This would only work if you use >= or <= signs instead of > or <.

Physical beauty: Several scientific studies have indicated that being attracted to physically beautiful members of the opposite gender is a method of choosing a strong and healthy mate with the purpose of giving your future offspring a biological advantage.

Asked by malisa_kay - Mon Jun 9 11:31:32 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It does happen with equations, but it doesn't really matter as the equals sign means the same thing in both directions. Look at it this way: suppose we have the inequality -x > 1 We could solve this by multiplication, but let's do it another way. Add x to both sides: -x + x > 1 + x 0 > 1 + x Subtract 1: -1 > x x < -1 Notice that the inequality has essentially reversed direction. It happens in part because larger absolute values are actually smaller in the negative direction, but I don't really think that's important. Hope this helps.

A. View the inequality as two knots in a string extending away from you through a zero point. One represents a larger value and the other a smaller value. Changing the signs is equivalent to swinging the string 180 degrees around the zero point. The one that was closer to you is now the one farther away and vice versa. This means that the value that was larger is now smaller, etc. The other responder's examples are good ones.

A. If something is multplied by a negative, the sign is reversed. For example, if you have +2 x -1 = -2. If you have -2 x -1 it will be +2. The sign must be switched because when you multiply by a negative, it makes the opposite sign.
