(a) need to find the number of books, we'll call it "b". then the money (6w) minus the cost of books (17b) equals change left over (w)
6w - 17b = w
6w - w = 17b
5w = 17b
(5/17)w = b
(b) if w = 34
(5/17) *34 = b
10 = b
I know my math and your answer is going to be A.
So 9x<18 can be factored out into
9(x)<9(2)
you can divide both sides by 9
x<2
so the solution is any number more than 2, but not 2
