Study Notes
Understanding Inequalities
- Attendance at events can be expressed as inequalities; for example, over 100,000 fans at The Ohio State University marked a significant turnout.
- Earnings can also be limited by inequalities; here, earning $16 per hour capped at $96 reflects the maximum hours worked being 6.
- A decrease in account balance showing that after a $50 drop, the new balance is less than $740 indicates a financial condition needing monitoring.
- Inequalities can depict conditions for growth, such as a number increasing by 7 that must be at least 45, suggesting the original number is at least 38.
- Attendance at communal events, like flea markets, can be quantified; for instance, more than 3,400 attendees signifies a popular event.
- Earnings inequality can highlight wage limits; earning $11 per hour with a maximum of $121 indicates a total of 11 hours worked.
- Race times can be expressed through inequalities; for example, an 84-minute 10-km race indicates the time was at least twice as long compared to the winner's time of a maximum of 42 minutes.
- Positive changes in savings accounts show growth; if an account increased by $70 and exceeds $400, the initial balance must have been over $330.
