Answer:

The number is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of 5 and 4 more than a number = 9 times the number

Let the number be x;

5(4 + x) = 9x

20 + 5x = 9x

4x = 20

x = 20/5

x = 5.

What is the solution set to, "Katie wants to collect over 100 seashells. She already has 34 seashells in her collection. Each da

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Katie will collect more than 100 seashells in 5 and a half days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Katie already has 34 seashells in her collection.

Each day, she finds 12 more seashells on the beach.

Let x be the number of days Katie is collecting seashells.

In x days, she will collect 12x seashells.

In total, she will collect $34+12x$ seashells.

Katie wants to collect over 100 seashells, so

$34+12x> 100$

Solve this inequality. Subtract 34:

$34+12x-34>100-34\\ \\12x>66\\ \\2x>11\\ \\x>5 \dfrac{1}{2}$

Katie will collect more than 100 seashells in 5 and a half days.
