Answer:

Answer is A. 3 + 1.5 b < 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the problem carefully. Variable (b) represents books, and it states that the books weigh 1.5 lbs each. So you add her lunch (1 lb) and her shoes (2 lbs) to get 3 lbs. Once you add it together, it's less than (<) 15 lbs.

I tried to make this as understandable as possible, hope it helps.
