The table below shows the number of pizzas sold each day at pete's pepperoni pizza. the goal at pete's pizza is for 75% of the pizzas sold each day to have pepperoni.

how many days did pete's pizza meet it's goal?

Divide the number of pepperoni sold by the total number of pizzas sold for each day. If the answer is 0.75 or greater they met their goal.

Monday: 9 / 12 = 0.75 = Met the goal.

Tuesday :10/14 = 0.71 = Did not meet the goal.

Wednesday: 6/8 = 0.75 = Met the goal.

Thursday: 11/16 = 0.69 = Did not meet the goal.

Friday: 17/24 = 0.71 = Did not meet the goal.

They met the goal on 2 days.

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
