First, figure out how many total cookies you need. You do this by multiplying the number of friends times the number of cookies each friend will get.
8 x 3 = 24
Then, you take the number of cookies and divide it by the number in each box to find the number of boxes you need.
24/6 = 4
Quan should get 4 boxes.
Write an equation. To do this, make one integer equal to x, and the other equal to x+1. Set these equal to 149. Your equation should read x+(x+1)=149. Solve. To do this, add the two x's together. Your equation is now 2x+1=149. Get your x's alone. First, subtract 1 from both sides. Now the equation is 148=2x. Divide both sides by 2 to get x alone. You now have x=74. Plug this value back into the original equation to find your value for the other integer, and you have the two integers as 74 and 75. Hope this helps!
Simplify brackets
(7w - 2 - w = 2(3w - 1)
simplify 7w - 2 - w to 6w - 2
(6w - 2 = 2(3w - 1)
Expand
(6w - 2 = 6w - 2)
Since both sides are equal, there are infinitely many solutions
Answer: C) INFINITELY MANY
I believe the answer would be x = - 7/4
Answer : The answer is $153.00 from selling magazine subscriptions on Saturday.
Explanation : We know that each magazine is equal to $8.50. At first she sold 17 of the 35 magazines. 17 x $8.50 = $144.50 from selling 17 magazines. Now we do 35-17 to get how many magazines are left. So there is 18 magazines left. We need to do the same thing we did before, 18 x $8.50 = $153.00. She got $153.00 from selling 18 magazines on Saturday.
