Hello, well there are a few ways to write this. Here is one outlook.
Bruce bought three boxes of tiles with the same number of tiles in each.
x = number of tiles
3 = number of boxes
3x = total number of tiles.
Make note, the problem is asking for an expression for how many tiles he used and not the total number of tiles he has. Anyways, the problem then tells us he had to go get 3 more boxes but he used only 2 tiles out of the last box. So he used 2x + 2 tiles We put this together and we have
3x + 2x + 2
5x + 2
Number of tiles Bruce used = 5x + 2
We do the same for Felicia:
She gets 5 boxes, which = 5x. Then she had to go back and just get 5 tiles. So we have:
5x + 5
Number of tiles Felicia used = 5x + 5
Answer:
The inequality
represents the length of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is

Where, h is woman's height in centimeters and f is length of the femur in centimeters.
If woman's height is greater than 160cm, then


Substract 60 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 2.5.

Therefore the inequality
represents the lengths of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.
His car gets 21 mpg (miles per gallon). With 1 gallon he can drive 21 miles. For example, with 10 gallons, he can drive 21 mpg * 10 gal = 210 miles.
He bought $19.50 worth of gas at $1.40 per gallon.
$19.50 / ($1.40/gal) = 13.93 gal
He already had 5 gal of gas in his tanks, so now he has
5 gal + 13.93 gal = 18.93 gal
With 18.93 gal, he can drive
18.93 gal * 21 mpg = 292.5 miles
