Answer:

5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25

He can buy up to 14 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money ≥number of peppermints * cost per peppermint + number of sour candies * cost per sour candy

We know he has 5 dollars.  He bought 5 peppermints at $.15 cents each and x sour candies at $.25 each

Substituting in

5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25

5≥1.35 + .25x

Subtract 1.35 on each side

5-1.35 ≥ 1.35-1.35+.25x

3.65≥.25x

Divide by .25 on each side

3.65/.25 ≥ .25x/.25

14.6 ≥ x

He can buy up to 14 candies.  You can't buy part of a candy

  Write an equivalent expression for: 3(x-2) + 4(2x-3) Explain the steps you follow to find the equivalent expression.
natali 33 [55]
3(x-2)+4(2x-3)
Use distributive property
3(x)-3(2)+4(2x)-4(3)
=3x-6+8x-12
Combining like term
3x+8x-6-12
=11x-18. As a result, 11x-18 is another expression that equivalent for 3(x-2)+4(2x-3). Hope it help!

Plz help me with 17 part a and b I will thank u
podryga [215]
Part A

There are 2 cups in a pint, so 2 x 3 = 6
Plus 5 cups,
1 quart is equal to 1/4 of a gallon, and there are 4 cups in a gallon,
and another quart is 4 more cups,
so add all of the cups together:
6 + 5 + 4 + 4 = 19

Kelly is incorrect, because I added all of the cups together and I got 19. 

Part B

Since 4 cups fit in a quart, and she has 4 quarts, her quarts only hold 16 cups, which isn't enough, because there are 19 cups.

Hope this helped! If you have anymore questions or don't understand, please comment or DM me. :)
