Answer:

x ≥ 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

"2/3 of a number (x)" --->  (2/3)x

"Twenty-seven minus 2/3 of a number (x)" --->  27 - (2/3)x

"is not more than 36" can be rephrased as " is less than or equal to 36"

hence

27 - (2/3)x ≤ 36      (subtract 27 from both sides)

- (2/3)x ≤ 36 - 27

- (2/3)x ≤  9   (multiply both sides by -1, remember to flip the sign)

(2/3)x  ≥  -9  (multiply both sides by 3/2)

x ≥ -9 (3/2)

x ≥ 13.5

I have up to 8 I just really need help with the rest
nlexa [21]

9. In two years it would be (2,20) find the point on the grid and mark the spot.

In three years it would be (3,40) also mark that spot on the grid.

In four years it would be (4,80) mark this point on the grid

All I'm doing is finding the number of the year and going up till it meets the red line or population amount.

Hope this helped you a little.
