Answer:
x=1.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply each number by 4 to make wholes and than just cross multiply.
Simplifying
8 + 6t = 3t + t
Combine like terms: 3t + t = 4t
8 + 6t = 4t
Solving
8 + 6t = 4t
Solving for variable 't'.
Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-4t' to each side of the equation.
8 + 6t + -4t = 4t + -4t
Combine like terms: 6t + -4t = 2t
8 + 2t = 4t + -4t
Combine like terms: 4t + -4t = 0
8 + 2t = 0
Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + 2t = 0 + -8
Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + 2t = 0 + -8
2t = 0 + -8
Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8
2t = -8
Divide each side by '2'.
t = -4
Simplifying
t = -4
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b= $3.99×2 + $2.50= $10.48
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following unknowns:
p: number of people in the club
f: ounces of fruit punch
c: ounces of cheese
b: budget in dollars
We know that
p=12
Priya is preparing 8 ounces of fruit punch per person, so:
f= 8×p = 8×12 = 96
We need 96 ounces of fruit punch
Priya is preparing 2 ounces of cheese per person, so:
c= 2×p = 2×12 = 24
We need 24 ounces of cheese
A package of cheese contains 16 ounces and costs $3.99. In order to get all the cheese we need, Priya have to buy 2 packages of cheese.
2×16=32
32>24
A one-gallon jug of fruit punch contains 128 ounces and costs $2.50. Then, Priya have to buy only one gallon jug.
128>96
The budget would be:
b= $3.99×2 + $2.50×1
