The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! A variable doesn't have to be "x", it could be "y", "w" or any letter, name or symbol.
Cost = (3500 W)·(1 kw/1000 W)·(10 hrs/day)·(30 day/month)·($0.13/kw-hr)
Cost = (3500·1·10·30·0.13 / 1000)·(W·kW·hr·da·$ / W·da·month·kw·hr)
Cost = <em> 136.50 $/month</em>
5 times as many. Since dog B has 2 and dog A has 10, A = 2 * X, since you’re solving for the multiplication comparison. 10/2 = 5, so you’ve got 5 times as many.
Answer:
$70
Step-by-step explanation:
Middletown Equation:
1c +50 = T
Sweet Shoppe Equation:
2c + 30 = T
Set equations equal to one another and solve for first for cupcakes then for cost.
1c + 50 = 2c + 30
c+ 20 = 2c
20 = c (twenty cupcakes would be ordered)
Now insert into either equation ( or both to check)
1(20) + 50 = 70
2(20)+ 30 = 70
Total cost would be $70
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
