Let the Addison's candy count be a and Ronny's be r.

Then a = r - 15.  This is an equation.  

If you had a second equation, you could replace a with the expression (r - 15), which in itself is not an equation.

Let Ronny's candy be x and Addison's candy be y. Then it would read y=x-15.

This is an equation because this is saying that Ronny's amount of candy minus 15 is equal to amount of candy that Addison has. Once there is a useful equal then it is equation.

Ricky is at the bakery shop when he sees that 8 pastries cost $160. He need 16 pastries. How much will 16 pastries cost?

1) When you're finding ratios, the best thing to do is to add the parts together to find what one part is.
2+4= 6. Then divide this by the total- 18/6=3.
Therefore, the ratio of red to brown chairs is 2*3:4*3
Therefore, the amount of red chairs is 12.

2) The best thing to do i to find out how long it takes him to read one book them multiply this by 15.
To do this, simply divide the amount of time by the amount of books that he has read.
30/10= 3
Therefore, Rock can read a book in three minutes. As he is reading 15, you multiply these together.
3*15= 45
Therefore, it will take Rock 45 minutes to read 15 books.

3) The best thing to do is to find out what one pastry costs, and you can do this by dividing the cost by the amount of pastries.
160/8= 20.
Therefore, one pastry costs $20.
As you want to find the cost of 16 pastries, you simply times these together.
20*16= 320
Therefore, 16 pastries cost $320.

Hope this helps :)

Wade and Alexandra are 240 feet apart when they start walking toward one another. Alexandra walks twice as fast as Wade so whene
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The initial distance between Wade and Alexandra is 240ft.

They walk towards each other.

Alexandra walks twice as fast as Wade.

Now, because they are walking towards each other, when the distance walked by both of them equals 240 ft, they will meet.

Then:

if Wade walks z ft, Alexandra walks 2*z ft.

So we have the equation:

Distance that Wade walked + Distance that Alexandra walked = 240ft

z + 2*z = 240ft

3*z = 240ft

z = 240ft/3 = 80ft

They will meet when Wade walks 80ft.
