Jada and Priya are trying to solve the equation 2/3+x=4 Jada says, “I think we should multiply each side by 3/2 because that is the reciprocal of 2/3."

Priya says, “I think we should add -2/3 to each side because that is the opposite of 2/3."

1. Which person's strategy should they use?

2. Explain your reasoning.

3. Write an equation that can be solved using the other person's strategy.

You would use Priya's strategy. Priya is correct.  Because 2/3 is being added to x and not multiplied, then subtracting 2/3 from both sides is the correct action. Jada's strategy's equation is 23 + x = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

8y^50

step-by-step explanation:

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
