If he ate 4 of them, but it means he ate 2/5 muffins,
4 muffins = 2/5 muffins
You substitute x muffins for how much muffins she baked in all -
2/5* x muffins = 4
2/5 multiply by 2/5 to cross it out. Do the same to the other side.
x= 4 *5/2
x = 10 muffins
So there were 10 muffins in all
(12x + 9y) + (-2y) - (4x - 3y)
= 12x + 9y - 2y - 4x + 3y
= 12x - 4x + 9y - 2y + 3y
= 8x + 10y
A) 8x + 10y
Answer: B) a + c = 10
8a + 5c = 59
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 10 total people went, so the first equation has to be equal to 10. The total was $59, so the second equation should be set equal to $59. Now that the second equation is for cost, we must make it 8a + 5c to represent the cost of the adult and child tickets which are $8 and $5, respectively.
The perimeter is 35. If we were to change the width, which is one of the dimensions of the flower bed, The perimeter will change. This means that perimeter will no longer be 35. So in order to keep the perimeter as it is, if we change one dimension, we must also change the other. Let's solve for the length, using the formula to see how much the length changes from. p = 2l + 2w 35 = 2l + 2(15) 35 = 2l + 30 5 = 2l 2.5 = l We must increase the length from 2.5 feet. This is because decreasing one dimension will decrease the perimeter. But if we increase the other dimension as well, it will restore the perimeter to where is was initially.
