Henry was playing with his marble collection, and decided to challenge his friend Andrew to figure out how many of each color marbles he had. Henry gave Andrew the following clues. "I have x blue marbles. I have four times as many red marbles as blue marbles. I have 5 less green marbles then I do blue marbles." Altogether I have 91 marbles. How many green marbles does Henry have?

11

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up an equation. Since all the blue marbles+red marbles+green marbles= total number of marbles, we have: x+4x+x-5=91.

x+4x+x-5=91

6x-5=91

6x=96

x=16

Since there are x-5 green marbles, we get the number of green marbles=16-5=11.

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
