PLEASE HELP ASAP A jewelry maker is designing a crown. The crown must have at least 45 gems, using only emeralds, rubies, and diamonds. The number of rubies must be 1 less than 3 times the number of emeralds. The number of diamonds must be 4 less than the number of rubies. Which inequality could the jewelry maker use to find the fewest number of emeralds, x, that can be placed on the crown?

Step-by-step explanation:

X is the variable and x means multiplication symbol.

X + (X x 3 - 1) + (X x 3 - 1) - 4) ≥ 45 is the answer I got.

The answer to that inequality would be

X ≥  7 I think

18

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.

this linear equation would have just one solution.

step-by-step explanation:

the reason why this would have one solution is that it is an expression with just one variable. since that variable is not raised to a power, it will always have just one solution.
