If you do 238 devided by 8 its 29.75 so they need 30 boxes.

238/8 = 29.75
Ingrid is correct because if you use 29 boxes, you'll have a remainder so 30 boxes is the best option so nothing will be left behind. Round 29.75 and you'll get 30.

Question
The cost of a taxi is $2.75 plus $0.40 per half mile.write an equation to find the cost of a taxi ride that is m miles long How much would it cost you to travel 45 miles m=#miles c=#cost 1.C stand for ____.
a.cost
b.circle
2.what is the equation?
a.c=-0.4m+2.75
b.c=0.4m+2.75
3.what is the solution?
a.$6.35
b.$6.25
Solution 1
1) It tells you in the question c = cost, so cost would be the answer
2) 2.75 is the fixed rate so we would keep it as is. C is the cost which would the total, so c = ?m + 2.75 0.40 per half mile so you put 0.40m because it varies depending on the amount of miles That makes the equation c = 0.40m + 2.75
3) Now to find how much it costs for 45 miles, you plug 45 for m c = 0.4 * 45 + 2.75 c = 20.75 Not sure why it isn't an option
Question
A number j minus 14 is less than −21.
Solution 1
If you are supposed to write the inequality, it would be j - 14 < -21 j represents the number j minus 14 is taking away or subtracting 14 together, they are less than -21, which is why < is used
Solution 2
A number j minus 14 is less than −21 j - 14 < -21
if you need to find j then j - 14Â < -21 Â +14Â Â +14 j < -7
