Help please! Write an inequality that represents the situation. A cat weighs less than 8 pounds.

w is a place holder for the cat's weight. It's some positive real number.

To describe all weights less than 8, we simply write w < 8.

For example, let's say the cat weighs 5 pounds. This would mean w = 5. In other words, 5 replaces w and we go from w < 8 to 5 < 8. This is a true inequality because 5 is smaller than 8.

Something like 10 < 8 is false because 10 is not less than 8. So w = 10 is not a solution to w < 8.

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
