isabel saves the most of their salary each month

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the Salary of Gavin, Harry & Isabel be $100

Since

Gavin saves 28%

So his saving amount is Gavin

= 28% of $100

= $28

As harry spends 3 ÷ 4 of his salary

So Harry Spenings is

= (3  ÷ 4) of $100

= $75

Now

Harry Saving is

= $100 - $75  

= $25

Also the ratio between isabel saves, and spend is 3:7

3k + 7k = 10k = 100S

 k = $10

Now

the amount of salary isabel saves

= 3k

= 3 × $10

= $30

Now

$30 > $28 > $25

i.e.

isabel Saving >  Gavin Savings > Harry Savings

Hence, isabel saves the most of their salary each month

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
