A scientist studied the migration paths of two different species of birds, the Pectoral Sandpiper and the Northern Wheatear. He tagged 20 of each species with GPS trackers and monitored their total migration distances for the year. The results are represented by the box plots below. Use the provided box plots to evaluate each of the statements below.

a) at most means it can cost $12 or less

so the inequality sign would be ≤

you would then need to multiply the number of toppings by the 0.35 for each one and add it to the cost of the cheese pizza.

the equation would be 9.99 + 0.35x ≤ 12

b) using the above equation:

9.99 + 0.35x ≤ 12

subtract 9.99 from each side:

0.35x ≤2.01

divide both sides by 0.35:

x ≤ 2.01 / 0.35

x ≤5.74

at most you could have 5 toppings.

the 5 topping pizza would cost: 0.35 x 5 = 1.75 + 9.99 = $11.74

well it says right there your brother is 13; "your age". so lets keep it simple. you are 13 years old and there is no way to put this into any kind of equation without wanting to tear your hair out. who came up with this?
