jose could win $17 for guessing the correct number of jelly beans in a jar. he estimates that there are 450 jelly beans in the jar, give or take 50. let x represent number of jelly beans

I'll do the first one for you. it isn't very hard at all.on number one, you have (50 × 3), which equals 150, and (3 × 3), which equals 9. after you establish that, you add 150 and 9 together. so, (150 + 9) equals 159.this means that 53 × 3 = 159.
