17 Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu.
A whole number is 6 more than 2 times another number. The sum of the two numbers is less than 50. This can be written in an inequality as
x+2x+6 < 50, where x represents the smaller number.
From the set {13, 14, 15, 16, 17), the values of x for which the inequality holds true are

13 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

From the inequality

x + 2 x + 6 < 50

we work out the answer for x isolating it on one side of the inequality as shown below

3 x + 6 < 50

3 x < 50 - 6

3 x < 44

x < 44/3  ≅ 14.6666...

Therefore, select from the set the numbers:  13 and 14.

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
