Pretty sure it's A. (X times .5 equals Y)
The content of care package would be a board game and several snack packs.
Given is the weight of board game = 4 pounds.
The weight of one snack pack =
The total weight would be less than 25 pounds.
Solving for part A :
Let 'x' represents the number of snack packs.
So the weight of all snack packs would be 0.5x pounds.
Now weight of care pack = weight of board game + weight of all snack packs.
weight of care pack = 4 + 0.5x
But total weight must be less than 25 pounds.
So the inequality would be: 4 + 0.5x < 25
Solving for part B :
Solving the inequality 4 + 0.5x < 25
⇒ 4 + 0.5x - 4 < 25 - 4
⇒ 0.5x < 21
⇒ x < 42
Solving for part C :
Since x < 42 and x is an integer number, so x = 41.
She can include maximum of 41 snack packs in the care package.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of blue marbles be x
The number of green marbles = 3x - 2
Total marbles= 18
x + 3x -2 = 18
4x - 2 = 18
4x = 18+2
4x = 20
x =20/4
x =5
The number of blue marbles = 5
The number of green marbles = 3*5 - 2 = 15 -2 = 13
Its the last answer because you would move the decimal to the right three places
