In a school election, 3/4 of the students vote. there are 1464 ballots. write and solve and equation to find the number of students.

x = total number of students

equation is:

 (3/4)x = 1464

 to solve for x divide both sides by 3/4

x = 1464 / 3/4 = 1952

 x = 1952

 there are 1952 total students

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5

one that is bigger than 3 1/2
