Hello Myeisha91!
First we need to find how many inches in total to wrap 4 boxes. We do that by multiplying 18 x 4 = 72 so Jena needs 72 inches. The question wants to know how many yards so we need to convert 72 inches into yards. We can convert inches to yards by using a conversion factor. We know that 1 inch = 0.0277778 yd. Now that we know 1 inch = 0.0277778 yd, lets convert the 72 inches to yards.
We convert 72 in to yards by multiplying 72 in by
So Jenna will need 2 yards to wrap 4 boxes.

Answer:
If you solve for x, you get which means she bought at least 3 accessories.
=========================================================
Explanation:
x = number of accessories, some nonnegative whole number
13x = amount spent on accessories only
For instance, let's say she bought 5 accessories. This means she spent 13x = 13*5 = 60 dollars on those five items.
This is on top of the $26 Veronica paid for the doll itself (without the accessories). In total, she spent 13x+26 dollars for the doll (26) and the accessories (13x) combined.
We're told she spent a minimum of $65, which means that she spent 65 or more dollars.
So the total cost (13x+26) must be equal to 65 or larger than 65.
We write that as which sets up the inequality.
----------------------------
Let's solve for x
So x can be equal to 3, or larger than it.
The lowest value x can be is 3.
Meaning that she bought at least 3 accessories (ie she bought 3 or more accessories).
