7) If 1/2 (8p + 6) = 3p + 1, what is the value of 4p?
a) -8
b) -2
c) 2
d) 8

or, 1/2(8p+6)=3p+1

or,8p+6=6p+2

or,2p= -4

or,p = -2

Therefore, 4p = 4×(-2)= -8

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

the correct answers i think are b. and d.

give me brainliest if it is correct!
