HELP PLEASE D: A group of friends are going to a local pizzeria. One medium pizza costs $12.50. The friends spent less than $55. They purchased two pitchers of soda for a total of $8.99. How many medium pizzas could the group purchase? Write and solve an inequality. Show your work.

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

~

your answer would be 12

4 candies

step-by-step explanation:

7 x 28 = 196

200 - 196 = 4 candies remaining.
