Answer:

378 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total amount of cookies be y

Let amount of cookies in each small box = x

let amount of cookies in each large box = x + 32

Therefore total amount of cookies in 18 small boxes = 18x

Total amount of cookies in 7 large boxes = 7(x+18) = 7x + 126

Fractional amount of cookies in small & large boxes = 1/2 + 3/7 = 13/14

Total amount of cookies in  small & large boxes = 18x + 7x + 126 = 25x + 126

Fractional amount of small cookies equals amount of small cookies in 18 boxes.

3/7y = 18x------------------Eqn 1

From eqn above y = 42x

Equating fractional sum & total sum =

25x + 126 = (13/14)y

Upon cross multiplication

350x + 1764 = 13y---------Eqn 2

Substituting y = 42x into equation 2

350x +1764 = 13(42x)

1764 = 546x - 350x

1764 = 196x

x = 9 cookies

Therefore total number of cookies = 42 × 9 = 378 cookies

Which expressions have exactly two factors? Choose ALL that apply.
marishachu [46]

Answer: The answer is F.

Step-by-step explanation: It’s F because the number would be multiplied equally because all of the number are multiplied by 2. The rest of them either have variables or variables with numbers in them, which looks kind of funky, so F is the answer. I hope you get it right :). Sorry, if I was late for the reply and if you already figured it out… :(.
