17) Let, the number = x It would be: 2x ≥ 16 Divide both sides by 2, 2x/2 ≥ 16 x ≥ 8
19) Let, the number = x 5 < x/3 - 11 < 10 Add 11 to each side, 16 < x/3 < 21 Multiply 3 to the each side, 48 < x < 63
21) It would be: 1/0.06 < x< 1/0.02 [ 1 m = 100 cm] so, [6cm = 0.06 m & 2m = 0.02 cm] 17 < x < 50
23) Let, that number of books = x It would be: 30 + 1.5x = 60 Subtract 30 from both sides, 1.5x = 30 Divide by 1.5, x = 20 [Final Answers are in bold letters ]
