50 points! answer now! the equation y = 1.6x represents the number of laps henry can swim over time, where y is the number of laps and x is time in minutes. the table shows the number of laps larry can swim over time. how many laps can each boy complete per minute, and who can swim laps at a faster rate? henry: laps per minute larry: laps per minute the boy who swims at a faster rate is . (type h for henry or l for larry) time 2.5 4 5.5 8laps 4.5 7.2 9.9 14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry swims at 1.6 laps per minute and Larry swims at 1.8 laps per minute. Henry swims at a slower rate than Larry

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
