Answer:
x>12
Step-by-step explanation:
The first is in the form y=Mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Start at 600 on the y-axis and graph with a slope of six. The second is in the same form but the y-intercept is 0, so start at the origin and graph with a slope of 8. The last is in the form y=b+mx, so start at 1300 and graph with a slope of 3. Remember, slope is rise/run or (change in y)/(change in x). Since the domain and range start at 0 these graphs will only be in the first quadrant with an x limit of 650 and a y limit of 1500.
The answer would be x=14/3 and x=-28/3. Hope this helps!
Divide 24 by 3 to figure out how many cubes are in 1 step (24/3=8). Now divide 84 by 8 to figure out how many steps he built with 84 cubes (84/8=10.5). Ron's second staircase has 10 and a half steps :)
