Toothpaste and food coloring
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
Our total is x.
Maysa took half of the cherries, so there is .5x left.
Nabilla took half of the remaining, so that is .5*0.5x, which is .25x
Abdulla took 3.
Your equation is:
.25x-3=5
.25x=8
x=32
So there are 32 cherries
Isn’t the same ?? so wouldn’t it be 100 also ?
Y=x is the answer alone, since it only crosses the origin
Let's solve for a.

Step 1: Flip the equation.
