Since the 6 is bigger than 5 it means round up if it was a 4 you would round down
soo... 26
I think it is x > 5 because if you combine like terms you would get 2x-4>6 then you add 4 To 6 which is 10 then you do 10÷2 which is 5
<u>Answer:</u>
The length of a paper clip chain is directly proportional to the number of paper clips. If a chain with 65 paper clips has a length of 97.5 inches then the length of chain with 14 paper clips is 21 inches.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that the length of a paper clip chain is directly proportional to the number of paper clips. Directly propotional means when the length of paper clip increases, then the number of paper clips also increases in same ratio.
Hence, by above definition, we get
------- eqn 1
From question, for a chain with 65 paper clips has a length of 97.5 inches, we get

Similarly, for a chain with 14 paper clips with length to be found, we get

Now by using eqn 1, we can calculate the length of 14 paper clips is,

Rearranging the terms we get,


Hence the length of chain with 14 paper clips is 21 inches.
This is how I solved it.
2.5 multiplied by 3 is 7.5, which equals how many she takes a day.
Then I multiplied 7.5 by 10 = 75. I did that because the meds are taken for 10 days.
Also if you added 7.5 ten times is also 75.
So my final answer is that 75 tablets have been taken in total.
