If 20 large cakes are needed, you'll need 4 helpers. To find this, you first need to find how many cakes 1 helper can make. Every hour, one helper can make 2 large cakes. If they have the kitchen for 3 hours, 6 large cakes can be made by one helper. This also means that 2 helpers make 12 cakes, 3 helpers can make 18 cakes, and 4 helpers can make 24 cakes. Since you can't have a fraction of a helper, 4 is your answer. For the 700 small cakes, you do the same thing. Every hour, 1 helper makes 35 small cakes. In 3 hours, 1 helper can make 105 small cakes. 2 can make 210, 3 can make 315, 4 can make 420, 5 can make 525, 6 can make 630, and 7 can make 735. The 700 small cakes takes 7 helpers and the 20 large cakes takes 4 helpers. Your total amount of helpers is 11.

Alexa worked 30 hours last week and earned $450. Her pay has now been increased by 20%. Which equation describes her new rate of
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

p=18h

or

p=\dfrac{450}{30}\cdot 1.2\cdot h

Step-by-step explanation:

If Alexa worked 30 hours last week and earned $450, then her hourly payment is

\dfrac{\$450}{30}=\$15.

Her payment has now been increased by 20%, so her hourly payment becomes

\$15\cdot 1.2=\$18.

If she worked h hours, then she earned \$18h. If her new payment is p, then

p=18h

or

p=\dfrac{450}{30}\cdot 1.2\cdot h.
