I got 4 but i’m not 100% correct
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
8 is LESS THAN 1/2x
so youd take those numbers and multiply by 1/2
C, B, and A are all under 8, so that would be wrong
when you multiply 1/2 with 17, you get 8.5 which is bigger than 8. then everything else above that is more than 8, therefore D is the right answer.

Answer:
D.5
Step-by-step explanation:
You can write the following equations from the information given:
y=x+3 (1)
11x+5y=47 (2)
x is the number of hardback books
y is the number of paperback books
You can replace (1) in (2):
11x+5(x+3)=47
11x+5x+15=47
16x=47-15
16x=32
x=32/16
x=2
Then, you can replace the value of x in (1) to find the value of y:
y=2+3
y=5
According to this, the answer is that Jamal bought 5 paperback books.
