Answer:
5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25
He can buy up to 14 candies
Step-by-step explanation:
Total money ≥number of peppermints * cost per peppermint + number of sour candies * cost per sour candy
We know he has 5 dollars. He bought 5 peppermints at $.15 cents each and x sour candies at $.25 each
Substituting in
5 ≥ 9*.15 + x*.25
5≥1.35 + .25x
Subtract 1.35 on each side
5-1.35 ≥ 1.35-1.35+.25x
3.65≥.25x
Divide by .25 on each side
3.65/.25 ≥ .25x/.25
14.6 ≥ x
He can buy up to 14 candies. You can't buy part of a candy
The number is increasing by 2 every time.
78 x 2 = 156
-4 + 156 = 152
The 78th term is 152

The problem here is: Too many words.
If you boil the problem down to the bare facts, the question is:
"$210 is 15% of what number ?"
I'm pretty sure you can take it from there,
but here's the rest of it anyway:
$210 = 15% of (March amount)
$210 = 0.15 x (March amount)
Divide each side by 0.15 : $1400 = March amount .
Check:
1400 + 210 = 1610
1.15 x 1400 = 1610 yay!
Answer:
x=w-z
add x to both sides w=z+x
subtract z from both sides w-z=x
