Answer:
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
x = Number of gold coins in a chest
1/2x = Number of gold coins taken by the captain
1/4x = Number of gold coins taken by Sally
3 = Number of gold coins left
2. How many coins were in the chest at the start?
Let's write the following equation to solve for x:
1/2x + 1/4x + 3 = x
2x + x + 12 = 4x (Lowest Common Denominator is 4)
4x - 2x - x = 12 (Like terms)
x = 12
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute then combine like terms then subtract 16 from itself and 148 then 4 plus itself and 40 then 44 divide by 132

Answer:
A. The situation is discrete B. i. { x : 0 ≤ x ≤ 6; x ∈ Z} ii. { C = 5x : 0 ≤ C ≤ 30; C ∈ Z}
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The situation is discrete since we have integral values for the amount paid per mile walked. The amount per mile is $5 and is only paid if a complete mile is walked. So, it is a discrete situation.
B. i. Since 0 miles represents 0 distance and the student walks a maximum of 6 miles, let x represent the distance walked. So the domain is 0 ≤ x ≤ 6 where x ∈ Z where Z represent integers.
{ x : 0 ≤ x ≤ 6; x ∈ Z}
ii. Since at 0 miles the amount earned is 0 miles × $5 per mile = $ 0 and at the maximum distance of 6 miles, the amount earned is 6 miles × $5 per mile = $ 30, let C represent the amount donated in dollars. So the range is 0 ≤ C ≤ $ 30 where C = 5x.
{ C = 5x : 0 ≤ C ≤ 30; C ∈ Z}
