WILL MARK BRAINIEST :)) Christopher just found this beautiful yarn for 20% off at his favorite yarn store. He can make one scarf from 2/3 of a ball of yarn. If Christopher buys 12 balls of yarn, how many scarves can he make?

8

Step-by-step explanation:

18 scarves

Step-by-step explanation:

12 ÷ 2/3 = 12 · 3/2 = 18

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

3 is greater then both of those numbers
