Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be equal to the number.
We can use what the question gives us to directly form a mathematical statement. When you multiply it by 3 (3x) and then subtract 10 (3x-10) you will get a number less than 5 (<5). Using this, our mathematical statement would look like this:
To find the range of possible values, we must solve the inequality and isolate x.
Add 10 to both sides
Divide both sides by 3
I hope this helps!
Only Table 2 shows direct variation. Every y value is 7 times the associated x value.
Lets assume, Sally has X pound of potatoes in her pantry.
So, 4/3 of the potatoes Sally has in her pantry = 
Now, Sally needs 2/3 pound of potatoes and this 2/3 pound of potatoes is 1/3 pound more than that
So the representing equation will be:
(subtracting 
from both sides)
(multiplying both sides by 3)
So, Sally has 
pound of potatoes in her pantry.
It was multiply (z - 12) by 2 because you have to multiply everything in the parentheses
