Answer: he bought 72 ounces of blueberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of ounces of blueberries that Wayne bought.

He used 3/8 of the blueberries to make blueberry bread. This means that the amount of blueberries that he used to make blueberry bread is 3x/8 ounces

He used 1/6 of the blueberries to make pancakes. This means that the amount of blueberries that he used to make pancakes is x/6 ounces.

He used 5/12 of the blueberries to make jam. This means that the amount of blueberries that he used to make jam is 5x/12 ounces. The total amount of blueberries used is

3x/8 + x/6 + 5x/12 = 46x/48

If Wayne uses 69 ounces of blueberries he bought, it means that

46x/48 = 69

46x = 48 × 69 = 3312

x = 3312/46

x = 72 ounces

Answer:

  • 6 ≤ x ≤ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Area formula</u>

  • A = lw

<u>Applied to the given rectangle, we have</u>

  • A = 1.5*4x = 6x

<u>Since 36 ≤ A ≤ 72, substituting A</u>

  • 36 ≤ 6x ≤ 72
  • 6 ≤ x ≤ 12

It is viable.
