PLEASE HELP ITS DUE VERY SOON (WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST)
Alicia is mixing paint. She has a bucket that contains 5 pints
of paint. She adds 2 pint containers of paint to the bucket
until she has at most 8 pints of paint in the bucket. How
many containers of paint can she add to the bucket?

Answer 1

Let buckets be x

ATQ

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x+5\leqslant 8$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x\leqslant 8-5$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x\leqslant 3$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x\leqslant \dfrac{3}{2}=1\dfrac{1}{2}$
