You can write this scenario as an inequality which you can then solve:
x + x + 9 < 60
2x + 9 < 60
- 9
2x < 51
÷ 2
x < 25.5

So x has to be less than 25.5, making 25.5 the greatest possible value. I hope this helps!

can someone please help I don’t get it and I just want answers I have been trying to solve this for 1 hour now
dusya [7]

Answer:

1. y + 10 - 3/2y = -y/2 + 10

2. 2r+ 7r-r - 9 = 8r - 9

3.  7 + 4p-5+p+2q = 2 + 5p + 2q

Step-by-step explanation:

basically you can add terms that have the same variable

integers can be added together, Xs can be added, Zs, Ys, As, Bs, Cs, you get the point

1. y + 10 - 3/2y = -y/2 + 10

2. 2r+ 7r-r - 9 = 8r - 9

3.  7 + 4p-5+p+2q = 2 + 5p + 2q (do not add different variables p and q ) together

try 4-6 on your own to get this skill down, if you need help with those just let me know

The fourth graders are helping raise money for the local animal shelter they hoped to raise 1,000. so far they have made 465 in
vredina [299]

The fourth graders raised 175 more than 1,000 for the local animal shelter.

First, let us identify the given.

  • Target value to raise= 1,000
  • Profit from bake sale= 465
  • Profit from t-shirt sales= 710

How much money did the fourth graders raise? The sum of the profit from the bake sale and t-shirt sales determines the total money raised.  

Total money= Profit from bake sale + Profit from t-shirt sales

Total money= 465 + 710

Total money= 1175

How much more than 1,000 have the fourth graders raised? This amount is equivalent to the difference between the total money raised and the target amount, 1,000.

Total money-target amount

1175-1000= 175
