6 cases ordered
'p' jars in each case
Total number of jars is (6 cases) x (p jars/case) = 6p jars
Split 7 ways, each restaurant gets (1/7) of the total order = 6p/7 jars.
I sure hope 'p' is a multiple of 7, or else Harrison might
need to deal with the number of pickles in each jar.
The dimensions given when you have a triangle is the base and height of the triangle. The formula for the area is
A = 0.5bh
The unknown here is h. We can determine that from the cost of mulch that covers the whole area of the triangle. The equation would be:
4A = 33
Substituting A = 0.5*5.5*h = 2.75h to the equation:
4(2.75h) = 33
11h = 33
h = 33/11
h = 3 feet
X=amount of money woman has
n=pounds of sugar
Store #1: 8.5*n=x+30
Store #2: 8*n=x-25
multiply #2 by 17/16 to make coefficient of n same as in #1
2: 8.5*n=17/16(x-25)
Subtract #2 from #1
0=x+30-17/16(x-25)
x+30-17x/16 +25*17/16
x/16=30+25*17/16
x=480+425
=905 cents
=$9.05
