Answer 2

Any idea?

Answer 3

This is what I got so far

Answer 4

very good, go ahead, solve for x

Answer 5

x is greater than 366.6

Answer 6

so would my answers be a=366 and b=466?

Answer 7

ops I mean x is less than 366.6

Answer 8

\(\dfrac{18.50 x +24.75 (x+100)}{2x+100}\geq 22\)

\(18.50x +24.75 x +2475 \geq 22(2x+100)\geq 44x +2200\)

\(43.25x +2475 \geq 44x +2200\)

\(0.75 x \leq 475\)
\(x \leq 633.33\)

Answer 9

isnt -2475+2200= -275?
