Answer:

a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes

The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes

a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set up equation is as follows;

11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;

13 = 3·M - 2

3·M = 13 + 2 = 15

3·M = 15

M = 15/3 = 5

M = 5

The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes

X + 18 greater than or equals 26
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

x + 18 ≥ 26

Step-by-step explanation:

"greater than or equals": ≥

x + 18 ≥ 26 is your answer.

If you are trying to solve it so you isolate x, subtract 18 from both sides:

x + 18 (-18) ≥ 26 (-18)

x ≥ 26 - 18

x ≥ 8

x ≥ 8 is your answer.
