1st Side: 8
2nd Side: 2x - 1
3rd Side: x
(8) + (2x - 1) > x (2x - 1) + x > 8 (x) + (8) > 2x - 1
2x + 7 > x 3x - 1 > 8 8 > x - 1
2x > -7 3x > 9 9 > x
x > -3.5 (disregard) x > 3 x < 9
3rd Side: x ⇒ (3 < x < 9)
2nd Side: 2x - 1 ⇒ 2(3) - 1 < x < 2(9) - 1 ⇒ 5 < x < 17
Answer: the 3rd side must be between 3 and 9, the 2nd side must be between 5 and 17
Hey there!
If the price per orange is $.26 and we want to know how many oranges he bought and we have our total, we can set o equal to how many oranges he got and set up an algebraic equation:
0.26o = 2.08
We multiply .26 by o because o is how many oranges he bought and that's what we're solving for- so we multiply by the unit price.
To isolate o, we divide both sides by .26 to get:
The answer is C- Jim bought 8 oranges.
Hope this helps!
