Question

Could someone help me and when you answer could you explain so I know you’re telling the truth

Answer 1

3y+5 ≤ 17

Explanation:

ok so we need she is buying a certain amount of markers but we don't know exactly how many so it would be 3y

we also know that she brought ONE notebook for 5 dollars which is why it would be 3y + 5

because the total amount will soon add up

now the reason it is ≤ 17

is because the symbol "≤" means less than or equal to

she did NOT spend MORE than 17 but we do not know if she spent exactly 17 or less.

Answer 2

3rd answer choice

Explanation:

The problem says "no more than" so automatically the first and second answer choices are wrong

Now looking at the last choice, it subtracts 5, but 5 shouldn't be subtracted since all of Janet's purchases should be combined. So that just leaves the third choice
