15/20 and 16/20
4/5 or 16/20 is greater
The total number of cookies baked by grandma = 96
Number of grandchildren = 8
As given, all cookies were evenly divided among 8 children, let us assume that everyone except Cindy got equal share. So on being divided equally, it becomes, cookies per children.
But, as mentioned that Cindy received 'c' cookies less, so let us suppose Cindy received 'x' cookies.
Expression becomes:
Hence, Cindy received 12-c cookies.
Answer:
8, 0, -8, -12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x.
5(x - 3) + 4(x + 3) = 3(x - 1)
Distribute
5x -15 +4x +12 = 3x-3
Combine like terms
9x -3 = 3x-3
Add 3 on each side
9x -3+3 = 3x-3
9x = 3x
Subtract 3x from each side
9x-3x = 3x-3x
6x =0
Divide by 6
6x/6 = 0/6
x=0
Answer:
y= - 5/2x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Y=2/5x + 2
Making it perpendicular, the slope will change to it's reciprocal and swap operations (+ becomes -). 2/5 will be -5/2. We already know the y-intercept which is -2, so simply put, the equation in slope-intercept form is y = -5/2x - 2
