Answer:
B. 9,000,000,000 
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information:
We are to determine the best estimate of the number of bottles sold this year and last year.
The best estimate means rounding up to the nearest whole number.
Given that:
7,234,267,990 bottles of water were purchased this year
2,000,900,999  bottles of water were purchased last year
The estimate of the bottles sold this year and last year from the above value is:
= 7,000,000,000 + 2,000,000,000
= 9,000,000,000
 
        
             
        
        
        
Correct question :
If the perimeters of each shape are equal, which equation can be used to find the value of x? A triangle with base x + 2, height x, and side length x + 4. A rectangle with length of x + 3 and width of one-half x. (x + 4) + x + (x + 2) = one-half x + (x + 3) (x + 2) + x + (x + 4) = 2 (one-half x) + 2 (x + 3) 2 (x) + 2 (x + 2) = 2 (one-half x) + 2 (x + 3) x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 2 (x + 3 and one-half)
Answer: (x + 2) + x + (x + 4) = 2 (one-half x) + 2 (x + 3) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
A triangle with base x + 2, height x, and side length x + 4 - - - - 
b = x + 2 ; a = x ; c = x + 4
Perimeter (P) of a triangle :
P = a + b + c
P =( x + 2) + x + (x + 4) - - - (1)
A rectangle with length of x + 3 and width of one-half x 
l = x + 3 ; w = 1/2 x
Perimeter of a rectangle (P) = 2(l+w)
P = 2(x+3) + 2(1/2x)
If perimeter of each same are the same ; then;
(1) = (2)
(x + 2) + x + (x + 4) = 2(x+3) + 2(1/2x)
 
        
             
        
        
        
You can set this up as an algebraic equation using the ratio:

 = 

where x = number of skiers
Cross multiply:
x + 1250 = 2x
Solve for x:
-x = -1250
x=1250
To find the number of snowboarders, add 1250.
1250 + 1250 = 2500
1250 skiers and 2500 snowboarders bought season passes.

8 is the missing number 
Let’s say x is 2,
3(2)+8=14
8(2)-2=14
