Avi and sergi are saving money to buy a game system. avi has $2 more than double the amount of money sergi has. together, they have $40. write an equation to determine how much money sergi and avi have together. x + 2x + 2 = 40 2x + 2 = 40 x + 2x − 2 = 40 2x − 2 = 40

  x + 2x + 2 = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let x represent the money Sergi has, then Avi has twice that plus $2, or ...

  2x +2

The total they have together is ...

  Sergi + Avi = 40

  x + (2x +2) = 40

  x + 2x + 2 = 40 . . . . . written without parentheses, to match answer choices

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
