An equal number of desks and bookcases are to be placed along a library wall that is 15 meters long. Each desk is 2 meters long, and each bookshelf is 1.5 meters long. If the maximum possible number of desks and bookcases are to be placed along the wall, then the space along the wall that is left over will be how many meters W long?	Select
A) 0.5
B) 1
C) 1.5
D) 2
E) 3

Rationale: let x be the number of desks and bookcases that are placed along the library wall . 2 x + 1.5 x < 15 3.5 x < 15 since x is a non negative integer , the largest number x can be is 4 . when x is 4 , the desks and bookcases take up 3.5 * 4 = 14 m , leaving 1 m of empty space . thus , i believe the answer is b ) 1
Answer: B
