Answer:

4. A) $\displaystyle x + 4 ≥ 7$

3. A) $\displaystyle x + 650 ≥ 1500; x ≥ 850$

2. D) $\displaystyle 0,95(9) + 1,25b ≤ 25$

1. C) $\displaystyle 8x + 45 < 12x + 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

4. Two families combined must have at least 3 pets.

3. $1500 represents your total, making everything else straightforward, as the keywords at least indicate that the a sum of $1500 must be greater or equal to $1500.2. Find the correspondents, then identify the inequality to apply. Here, use less than or equal because overpaying is unnecessary.1. Eight dollars

for each

pizza and twelve dollars for each pizza yields 12x and 8x. The remainder follows logically, as we have our initial costs of $45 and $5, so Company A’s total would be less than Company B's total, leading directly to our conclusion.I’m happy to assist with any further queries.
