Margie paid $10.65 for 3 gallons of milk. She wants to buy 8 additional gallons of
milk. How much will she pay for the
additional 8 gallons?

She will pay $28.4 for the additional gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the unit amount:

10.65/3 = 3.55

now multiply:

3.55 x 8 = 28.4

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
