A bus has less than 42 seats. If 36 seats are already occupied, write an inequality representing the possible number of passengers that can be
added to the bus.
A.) x - 36 < 42
B.) x + 36 < 42
C.) x - 36 > 42
D.) x + 36 > 57

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A x - 36 <42 is wrong because its saying how many can be added

B x +36 < 42 this one is most likely correct because its displays x as how many can be added

C x - 36 > 42 this is wrong because the bus has less than 42 seats

D x + 36 >57 like i said cant be over 42

x= -3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify brackets

4 - x - 1 = 6

step 2: simpilfy

3 - x = 6

step 3: subtract 3 from both sides

-x = 6 - 3

step 4: simpilfy 6 - 3

-x = 3

step 5: multiply both sides by -1

x = -3
