Matching Expression Four more than twice a number is less than 26. Four more than twice a number is at least 26. Four more than twice a number is at most 26. Four more than twice a number is more than 26. There are 14 times as many yellow crayons in a shoe box than red crayons. There are one-seventh as many blue crayons as yellow crayons. if there are 51 crayons, how many blue many blue crayons are there.

Solution

6)

a) four more than twice a number is less than 26 :

2x +4 < 26

b) four more than twice a number is at least 26 :

2x +4 >= 26

c)four more than twice a number is at most 26 :

2x +4 <= 26

d) four more than twice a number is more than 26 :

2x +4 > 26

2) let red crayons be x nos.

yellow = 14x

blue crayons = 1/7 th of yellow crayons = (14x)/7 = 2x

Total 51 crayons

So, x +14x +2x =51

17x = 51

x = 51/17 = 3

Blue crayons = 2x = 2*3 = 6 Option C
