(ab² + 13b - 4a) + (3ab² + a +7b)

4ab² + 20b - 3a

Step-by-step explanation:

This question most likely asks us to simplify the expression, as factoring is not possible...

(ab² + 13b - 4a) + (3ab² + a + 7b),

ab² + 13b - 4a + 3ab² + a + 7b,

ab² + 3ab² + 13b + 7b - 4a + a,

Solution : 4ab² + 20b - 3a

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
