Jack and Jill each go out shopping. Jack spends 1/3 of his money.
Jill spends 40% of her money.

Frank says Jack spent more because 1 /3 is greater than 40%.

Alice says you cannot tell who spent more.
Who do you agree with, Frank or Alice? Explain why.

I agree with Alice because you do not know how much money Jill and Jack had before they went shopping. If they had the same amount of money Jill would have spent more because 40 percent is greater than 1/3.

ok

step-by-step explanation:

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
