I think it would be 19 because if you take 100-5 it would be 95 and divide 95 by 19 you would get 5 so each student got 5 cookies and there was 19 students
<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -2.</u></h3>
5(2x + 8) = -8x + 4
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
10x + 40 = -8x + 4
<em><u>Add 8x to both sides.</u></em>
18x + 40 = 4
<em><u>Subtract 40 from both sides.</u></em>
18x = -36
<em><u>Divide both sides by 18</u></em>
x = -2
B. By solving for x, you get x=8.39,x=-2.39.
$64.80 50+20%+8% tax then you get 64.80
Answer:
110 yards of string
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting the feet of the string of 1 balloon to yard
1 foot = 1/3 yard
6 feet = x
x = 6 × 1/3 yard
x = 2 yard
Hence 1 balloon uses 2 yard of string
Since:
1 balloon = 2 yard of string
55 ballons = x
x = 55 × 2 yard of string
x = 110 yards of string
Hence, for 55 balloons he would need 110 yards of string.
