Atherine has $54. She plans to spend more than $20 of the money for a painting canvas. The rest will go toward paints. Each tube of paint costs $8.50. Assume that x represents the number of tubes of paint Catherine can buy.

I think that she could buy 3 tubes of paint because that's $25.50 and that gives you 28.50 for the canvas.
