Homework Help (Education & Reference) - February 2007

Hiya! We are learning inequalities in math class and I really do not get it. Now, go slowly, cuz I suck at math.
First off, what is an inequality? How do you solve one? Do all inequlaties have variables like x or y? And in an inequality, what does the little less than sign with a line under it mean?

Lastly, can you help me with solving this inequality?
x - __<__ 2
FYI, this- __<__ is supposed to be the less than sign with a line under it.

Thankies!

Help finding equation of best fit.?

Problem:
The car has a standard transmission, so it had to be put in gear by shifting three times during the 15 seonds in which the speed was being measured. The accelerator was being depressed at a constant rate during the 15-second period and then released at the same rate until the pedal was no longer being depressed.

Table, time is x, speed is y, in each an ordered pair:
(x,y),
(1,6),
(2,14),
(3,20),
(4,30)
(5,35.5)
(6,40),
(7,48),
(8,52),
(9,54),
(10, 57),
(11, 61),
(12, 65.5),
(13, 66.5),
(14, 67),
(15, 68.2),
(16, 65),

I'm supposed to graph it using a scatterplot and determine the equation of best fit. I graphed it, but I don't know how to find the equation of best fit, if you could help, (AND EXPLAIN IT), not just give me the answer, that'd be really great, thanks!
