The number of books that can be shelved is 45. So then we know that the amount that need to be shelved <em>can</em> be 45, if the bookshelf had 0 books on it. This means that it can have the equal part of the inequality sign.
However, the amount of book that need to be shelved cannot <em>exceed</em> 45, so b must be less than 45.
Therefore, the answer must be D) b ≤ 45.
Answer:
can we go with D. 54 ?
the height and length is 9 and 6
9x6= 54
You can see if the other angles add up to 180 or 360 degrees (depending on shape) then add them to make it the number, for example, if a triangle has a right angle, then the other 2 angles are 45 degrees, knowing that EVERY triangle's angles add up to 180 degrees.
Answer:
less than 1 1/2 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2, so the sum of the three cans is more than 1 by the difference between 1/5 and 1/6. That difference is 1/30 gallon. The sum is 1 1/30 gallons, which is less than 1 1/2 gallons.

A suitable common denominator is 2·3·5 = 30. Then the sum of the fractions is ...
1/3 + 1/5 + 1/2
= 10/30 + 6/30 + 15/30
= 31/30 = 1 1/30 . . . . . less than 1 1/2
In decimal, 1/3 ≈ 0.333, 1/5 = 0.200, 1/2 = 0.500, so the sum is ...
0.333 +0.200 +0.500 = 1.033
which is less than 1.5.
