A number is greater than another number by 3. Two times the smaller number is greater than the larger number by 2.

For the second sentence, it actually equal. It’s because you divide the same and multiply again, which makes no sense. Especiall, for the first sentence, how is the number greater if you mulitiplying it. the first number will be less and it will be expanded after you multiply. Please explain this to me

Step-by-step explanation:

Example work: 2 x 3 is 6 more than 6 can be 8

8  divided by 2 is 4

4 by 2 is 8

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
