Charles · Answer 1

A because 2b is b times 2 and 235 is bigger

Michaela · Answer 2

A:2b<235

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the correct answer because Keith may have 100 cards for example, he doubles that and gets 200. 200<235. The exponent * b * is an unknown number, but we know it is less than 117.5 (half of Jorges cards)
