Given:
Claire is 2 year younger than her sister.
The sum of ages is no less than 44 years.
To find:
Inequality and find the youngest age Claire can be.
Solution:
Let the age of Claire be x.
Her sister's age = x+2
Sum of their ages is no less than 44 years. It means the sum ages is greater than or equal to 44.




Divide both sides by 2.

It means, Claire age can be greater than or equal to 21. So, the youngest age Claire can be 21 years old.
Therefore, the required inequality is
and the correct option is B.
A varible represents the number u are looking for.

Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
From past data:
Fraction of lily sold :
Total flowers / number of lily
Total flowers = 14
Number of lily = 7
Fraction of lily = 14 /7 = 1/2
Going by these ;
Expected number of lilies in the next 20 bouquets sold :
Fraction of lily * number of flower in bouquet
1/2 * 20
= 10 lilies
