It's D. the median for town A, 30, is less than the median for town B, 40.
What does the rest of the question say??
10 >= 7 + 3x -4x+9<=1
-7 >= -7 - subtract 7 -9<=-9 - Subtract 9
__________ ___________
3 >=3x - divide by 3 -4x<=-8 - divide by -4
x>=1 x<=2
X = unknown number
10x - 16 = 2x
Subtract 10x from both sides to isolate the variable on the right side of the equation.
-16 = -8x
Divide both sides by -8 to get x alone.
2 = x
36×3/4
we will simplify it in four's table
9×3=27
