Question

Help plzz (30) points for both of the question-plz help - this is life or dead answer

Answer 1

The answer is B) 11.

Explanation:

We can solve this by making an expression to represent the situation. Let x = the number of student books in the box (what we're looking for):

`2.3x + 4.3 + 0.4 = 30`

`2.3x + 4.7 = 30`

`2.3x + 4.7 - 4.7 = 30 - 4.7`

`2.3x = 25.3`

`2.3x/2.3 = 25.3/2.3`

`x = 11`
