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

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
