What scenario could be modeled by the graph below? A. The number of pounds of apples, y, minus two times the number of pounds of oranges, x, is at most 5.
B. The number of pounds of apples, y, minus half the number of pounds of oranges, x, is at most 5.
C. The number of pounds of apples, y, plus two times the number of pounds of oranges, x, is at most 5.
D. The number of pounds of apples, y, plus half the number of pounds of oranges, x, is at most 5.

I would believe that it is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fact that A has 5, and x is minus two times, 5/2= 2.5, and that is where the second arrowhead is pointing to on the x axis.

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
