Answer: shameeka sold 20 hamsters to the store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hamsters that shameeka sold to the store.

Let y represent the number of hamsters that the pet store had initially.

Shameeka sold her hamsters to a pet store. This doubled the number of hamsters in the store. It means that

x + y = 2y

x = 2y - y

x = y

Then the store got six more hamsters. If the pet store has 46 hamsters now, it means that

2y + 6 = 46

2y = 46 - 6

2y = 40

y = 40/2

y = 20

Since x = y, then

x = 20

To find:

The inequality if baby tigers can be no larger than 4 pounds.

Solution:

Baby tigers can be no larger than 4 pounds. It mean weight of baby tigers cannot be greater than 4. In other words, the weight of the baby tigers must be less than or equal to 4.

Let w represents weight in pounds and the weight of the baby tigers must be less than or equal to 4. So,

w\leq 4

Therefore, the required inequality is w\leq 4.
