in july- 2,643
august- 2,287

a. Add the number of cans collected in June, July and August; then subtract 9,525 cans and the sum obtained.

b. They need to collect 2,697 cans in September.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that by the end of four months The Environmental Club needs to collect  9,525 cans.

You know that in June they collected 1,898 cans; in July they collected 2,643  cans and in August they collected 2,287 cans.

a. Then, you can find the number of cans the club  needs to collect in September to meet their  goal, following these steps:

- Add the number of cans collected in June, July and August.

- Subtract 9,525 cans and the sum obtained.

b. The sum of the number of cans collected in June, July and August is:

Then, the number of cans they need to collect in September is:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
