bearing in mind that standard form for a linear equation means
• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions
• only the constant on the right-hand-side
• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted
• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the males = x
Let the females = 8x
Let the total in the class = x + 8x = 9x
Females = 8x / 9x = 8/9
If you want the decimal, it is .889
Answer:
192 cakes
Step-by-step explanation:
36/12= 3
You multiply both numbers by 3:
12*3= 36 hours
64*3=192 cakes
192 cakes in 36 hours
X=weekly allowance
x/2=money saved (= money spent).
We can suggest this equation:
x/2+4=12
lowest common multiple=2
x+8=24
x=24-8
x=16
Answer: her weekly allowance is $16.
Answer:
Since the area of a triangle is 1/2 base times height, it should be a=1/2(10)(12m)
So the area would be 60 meters squared.
