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?
O x- 4+ 3x - 1 + x 2 45
3x - 1 + 3x - 4 2 45
O x + 3x - 1 + 3x - 1 - 4 2 45
O 3x - 1 + 3x - 1 - 4 2 45
