Sdly, Austrlin loggerhed turtles hve lost more thn 50% of their nesting femles in 10 yers. These diminishing numers men tht loggerhed turtles re now n endngered speies. They re under thret for numer of resons, inluding humn tivity on the ehes where the femles ly eggs nd identl deth in fi shing nets. In order to est work out how to sve the loggerhed se turtle, sientists need to work out wht effet vrious tions, suh s losing ehes, will hve on the loggerhed turtle popultion. To do this sientists use mthemtis! With omintion of dt nd equtions, they use Online resoures omputer models to predit popultion numers of future genertions of the loggerhed turtle. For emple, this simple eqution desries the numer of turtles tht there will e net yer: F = C (1 + B D) The vriles used in this eqution re: F = future popultion C = urrent popultion B = irth rte D = deth rte By mthemtilly prediting the future of the loggerhed turtle popultion, environmentl sientists n dvise governments of the est deisions to help sve the loggerhed se turtle from etintion.

3 390 Chpter 7 Equtions nd inequlities Key ides 7A Equtions review CONSOLIDATING An eqution is sttement tht two things re equl, suh s: = = = 10 + y. It onsists of two epressions seprted y the equls sign (=), nd it is onsidered true if the left-hnd side nd right-hnd side re equl. True equtions inlude = 20 3 nd 8 = 4 + 4; emples of flse equtions re = 7 nd 10 5 = 13. If n eqution hs pronumerl in it, suh s 3 + = 7, then solution to the eqution is vlue to sustitute for the pronumerl to form true eqution. In this se solution is = 4 euse = 7 is true eqution. Let s strt: Solving the equtions Find numer tht would mke the eqution 25 = (10 ) true. How n you prove tht this vlue is solution? Try to find solution to the eqution 11 = An eqution is mthemtil sttement tht two epressions re equl, suh s 4 + = 32. It ould e true (e.g = 32) or flse (e.g = 32). A flse eqution n e mde into true sttement y using the sign. For instne, is true sttement. An eqution hs left-hnd side (LHS) nd right-hnd side (RHS). A solution to n eqution is vlue tht mkes n eqution true. The proess of finding solution is lled solving. In n eqution with pronumerl, the pronumerl is lso lled n unknown. An eqution ould hve no solutions or it ould hve one or more solutions.

Right-hnd side (RHS) is 15 4, whih is lso 11. Sine LHS equls RHS, the eqution is true. Flse LHS = 7 3 = 21 RHS = = 25 Sine LHS nd RHS re different, the eqution is flse. True If = 10 then LHS = = 30. If = 10 then RHS = 3 10 = 30. LHS equls RHS, so the eqution is true. Emple 2 Stting solution to n eqution Stte solution to eh of the following equtions. 4 + = 25 5y = = 3z + 5 SOLUTION EXPLANATION = 21 We need to find vlue of tht mkes the eqution true. Sine = 25 is true eqution, = 21 is solution. y = 9 If y = 9 then 5y = 5 9 = 45, so the eqution is true. z = 7 If z = 7 then 3z + 5 = = = 26 Note: The ft tht z is on the right-hnd side of the eqution does not hnge the proedure.

For emple, < 7, nd 10 re ll inequlities. The first two re true, nd the lst one ould e true or flse depending on the vlue of. For instne, the numers 9.8, 8.45, 7 nd 120 ll mke this inequlity true. We ould represent ll the vlues of tht mke 10 true sttement. Let s strt: Smll sums Two positive whole numers re hosen: nd y. You re told tht + y 5. How mny possile pirs of numers mke this true? For emple, = 2 nd y = 1 is one pir nd it is different from = 1 nd y = 2. If + y 10, how mny pirs re possile? Try to find pttern rther thn listing them ll. If ll you know out nd y is tht + y > 10, how mny pirs of numers ould there e? An inequlity is sttement of the form: LHS > RHS (greter thn). For emple, 5 > 2 LHS RHS (greter thn or equl). For emple, 7 7 or 10 7 LHS < RHS (less thn). For emple, 2 < 10 LHS RHS (less thn or equl). For emple, 5 5 or 2 5 Inequlities n e reversed: 3 < nd > 3 re equivlent.
