For this case we can solve the problem by applying the following rule of three:
16 ounces ----> 12 $
1 ounces ------> x
Clearing x we have:
x = (1/16) * (12)
x = 0.75 $ / ounce
Answer:
The price, in dollars, per ounce of confetti is:
x = 0.75 $ / ounce
x+2 because it just doubles hon so the pattern can actually tell you the expression.
So for example,
if x=2 then 2+2 is 4
if x=4 then 4+4 is 8
and so on and so forth.
I really hope that this makes sense and helped you out in a way hon:)
Answer:the total trip, and I should be right, was 7 miles. He rowed up for 3 hours, and back for 1.
-1(x-1)(4x-9) +(x-1)(x-5)
(x-1)(-1(4x-9) +x-5)
(x - 1)(-4x + 9 + x - 5)
(x - 1)(-3x + 4)
