florence wants to spend no more than $9 on onions. will she be able to buy 2.9 pounds of onions? complete the explanation.
florence is able to buy pounds of onions at most, which means she is/is not able to buy 2.9 pounds of onions.

Florence is at the most able to buy 2.7 pounds of onions.

$9 divided by $3.25 is actually 2.7692307692, but you can't round up in this case because its asking for the most onions he COULD buy. So round down and you get 2.7

Florence is not able to buy 2.9 lbs. of onions

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=
