3. Six less than twice a number is 17. Which equation could be used to determine the
number, n?
A. 6-2n = 17
B. 2n-6 = 17
C. 6 - 7 n = 2n
D. 2n + 6 = 7

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

n represents our number. So, twice a number would be 2n because twice means multiply by two.

When the problem says 6 less, then it means 6 less than 2n. So, it would look like 2n-6.

FInally, the problem says that all of this equals 17 so 17 would be the result.

So, you answer is 2n-6 = 17. This is answer choice B.

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40;

step-by-step explanation:

walter has to make a minimum of 20 cookies. he already has 15 cookies made, so he must make 5 more to meet the minimum.

the maximum amount of cookies he can make is 55. he already has 15, so he has to make no more than 40 more cookies to meet the maximum.

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
