B) 5 + 3.5x > 3 + 4x
C) 5x + 3.5 < 3x + 4
D) 5x + 3.5 > 3x + 4

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

the options A and B are the ones that make sense

to get rid of one of the options, you have to substitute.

lets try 6

5+ 3.5(6)= 5+21= 26

3+ 4(6)= 3+24 = 27

in that example, the Bowling Pin is the best deal for Tina
