Tommy has three times as many video games as Griffin. Fletcher has eight less than Tommy. The total number of video games is less than 40. Circle the number that represents the greatest number of video games that Fletcher can own?

x = 6.86

Number of video games Fletcher has = 12.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of video games Griffin has = x

Number of video games Tommy has = 3x

Number of video games Fletcher has = 3x - 8

Total number of video games is > 40

Griffin + Tommy + Fletcher > 40

x + 3x + (3x - 8) > 40

4x + 3x - 8 > 40

7x > 40 + 8

7x > 48

x > 48 / 7

x > 6.86

Number of video games Fletcher has = 3x - 8

= 3(6.86) - 8

= 20.58 - 8

= 12.58

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet

answer: b.36 feet
