Susan can run 2 city blocks per minute. she wants to run 60 blocks. how long will it take her to finish if she already ran 18 blocks

It would take 21 minutes to run the 42 blocks remaining

Step-by-step explanation:

If Susan can run 2 city blocks per minute and she already ran 18 blocks of the 60, it means that she has to run 60 minus 18 blocks: that is 42 blocks in total. at a rate of 2 per minute it would take her 42 over that same rate: that's minutes in total.

if you mean

then it's c. 8, -7/3

but if you mean

then it is

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
