7 ounces / 6 steaks = 12 ounces per steak
6 steaks / 72 ounces = 1/12 steak per ounce
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this absolute value inequality,
our goal is to get the absolute value by itself on one side of the inequality.
So start by adding 2 to both sides and we have 4|x + 5| ≤ 12.
Now divide both sides by 3 and we have |x + 5| ≤ 3.
Now the the absolute value is isolated, we can split this up.
The first inequality will look exactly like the one
we have right now except for the absolute value.
For the second one, we flip the sign and change the 3 to a negative.
So we have x + 5 ≤ 3 or x + 5 ≥ -3.
Solving each inequality from here, we have x ≤ -2 or x ≥ -8.
20 medium and large pumpkins
m ... number of medium pumpkins
l ... number of large pumpkins
20 = m + l
20 = m + (m + 6)
20 = 2 * m + 6
2 * m = 20 - 6
2 * m = 14
m = 7 medium pumpkins
l = 20 - 7 = 13 large pumpkins
Result: Julio bought 13 large pumpkins.
the right answer is the second one B
