Gorge was able to solve 36 math problems in 15 muinutes. Urban was able to solve 42 math problems in 20 muinutes. Who was able to solve math problems at a greater rate? What was the rate?

Urban, 2.1 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

36 ÷ 3 = 2 (Gorge's)

42  ÷ 2 = 2.1 (Urban)

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
