At Gino's you pay $16 plus $8 per pizza.
At Venetian's you pay $24 plus $6 per pizza.
Let the number of pizzas be x.

At Gino's you pay 16 + 8x
At Venetian's you pay 24 + 6x

Set the two costs equal and solve for x to find out the number of pizzas for which both costs are the same.

16 + 8x = 24 + 6x
16 + 2x = 24
2x = 8
x = 4
Each place gives you a free pizza.
4 pizzas plus the free pizza equals 5 pizzas.

If you need 5 pizzas (including the free one), both parlors cost the same.

If you need fewer than 5 pizzas, use Gino's.
If you need more than 5 pizzas, use Venetian's.

A grocery store recieves a 180-pound crate containing six 10-pound bags of potatos and an unknown number of 5-pound bags of pota

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$60+5x = 180$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of bags of potatoes be x.

We have been given that a grocery store receives a 180-pound crate containing six 10-pound bags of potatoes and an unknown number of 5-pound bags of potatoes.

The weight of 6 potato bags of 10 pound each will be $6\times 10=60$ pounds.

We can write an equation for the number of bags of potatoes by equating the weight of six 10-pound bags of potatoes and x 5-pound bags of potatoes with 180 pounds.

$6*10+5x = 180$
