Mark and Anson each have a video game collection. • The number of video games in Mark collection can be represented by x. • The number of video games in Anson collection is 5 times the number in Mark collection. • The total number of video games is no more than 72. What is the solution set for x, the number of video games in Mark’s collection? Responses A x ≤ -12x ≤ -12 B x ≤ 12x ≤ 12 C x ≥ -1x ≥ -1 D x ≥ 15

Answer 1

The number of video games in Anson's collection is 5 times the number in Mark's collection, which can be represented as 5x.
The total number of video games is no more than 72, so we can set up the inequality: x + 5x ≤ 72.
Combining like terms, we get 6x ≤ 72.
Dividing both sides by 6, we have x ≤ 12.
Therefore, the solution set for x, the number of video games in Mark's collection, is x ≤ 12.
The correct response is A, x ≤ 12.

Answer 2

is it A, x ≤ 12?

Answer 3

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct, the correct response is B, x ≤ 12. Thank you for catching that error.
