15 = x
18 = 10

15/18 = x/10

Cross Multiply:
15 × 10 = 150

150 ÷ 18 = 8.33

Answer = 8.33 ft tall

A teacher has a bag of candy. If she gives every student in her class 4 pieces of candy, she is left with 48 pieces of candy. Ho
yawa3891 [41]
Well you can't actually find a number, but you can make an equation.
lets call the bag of candy x, and the number of students in the teachers class S.

she gives every student in her class 4 pieces, so to find that amount, we have to multiply the number of students in her class by 4, the pieces of candy. 4S

afterwards she has 48 pieces, which is the endpoint, x is the starting point because that's the amount of candy the teacher started with.

so your equation is x-4S=48, but the thing is, the question is looking for the amount of students she gave candy to, so we have to isolate S, or in easier words; put S on one side, and the numbers on the other.

so the equation is S=1/4x-12

Number of tickets: T.
Number of customers: c 
Initially the number of tickets is T0=150, when the group hasn't sold any tickets (c=0). Then the graph must begin with c=0 and T=150. Point=(0,150). Possible options: Graph above to the right and graph below to the left.
They sell the tickets in pack of three tickets per customer c, then each time they sell a pack of three tickets to a customer, the number of tickets is reduced by 3 (-3c). Then the number of tickets, T, the group has left after selling tickets to c customers is:
T=150-3c→T=-3c+150

For T=0→-3c+150=0→150=3c→150/3=c→c=50. The graph must finish with c=50, T=0. Final point=(c,T)=(50,0)

Answer:
The correct graph is above to the right, beginning on vertical axis with T=150 and finishing on horizontal axis with c=50.
The correct equation is T=-3c+150
