Simplify. Distribute 2 to all terms within the parenthesis
2(m -3) = 2m - 6
Simplify. Combine like terms
2m - 6 + 7 < 21
2m + 1 < 21
Isolate the m. Subtract 1 from both sides
2m + 1 (-1) < 21 (-1)
2m < 20
Isolate the m. Divide 2 from both sides
2m/2 < 20/2
m < 20/2
m < 10
m < 10 is your answer
hope this helps

Answer:
12.0 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem applies:
(12 cm)² +b² = (17 cm)²
b² = (289 -144) cm² = 145 cm²
b = √145 cm ≈ 12.04 cm
b ≈ 12.0 cm . . . . rounded to 1 decimal place
Solution:
Let each pond of jelly beans cost $x.
and each pond of almonds cost $y.
Then we can write
Now solve these two equations together using substitution we get
Hence each pond of jelly bean cost 1.25$
Each pond of almond costs 2.25$
