Answer: A. 8 Boxes

Step-by-step explanation: We can find that Freeman can purchase _ boxes my solving for x, with x equaling the amount of boxes of cookies Freeman can purchase.

34 [tex]\geq[/tex] 4x.

[tex]\frac{34}{4}[/tex] [tex]\geq[/tex] [tex]\frac{4x}{4}[/tex]

8.5 [tex]\geq[/tex] x

Since you cannot buy half of a box, Freeman can buy at most 8 boxes of cookies.
