Answer: 48

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Define the number of cakes they baked in term of x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the number of cakes Kay baked be x

Kay = x
Tim = 3x                ← Tim baked 3 times as many as Kay
Griff = 1.5x            ← Griff baked 1/2 as many as Tim

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Construct the equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The total number of cakes baked was 88.

x + 3x + 1.5x = 88        ← Combine like terms
5.5 x = 88                     ← Divide by 5.5
÷5.5    ÷5.5
x = 16

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of cakes each baked
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kay = x = 16
TIm = 3x = 16 x 3 = 48
Griff = 1.5x = 1.5(16) = 24

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Tim baked 48 cakes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let f(x) = 3x + x², find f(4).
xenn [34]
F(4) is equivalent to 28 because when you plug in 4 for the x, you get 28.

What is the area of the figure?
RUDIKE [14]
The area formula for rectangles is lxw. To solve, I would divide the figure up into 3 rectangles- top,middle and bottom, then find the areas and add them together.

Top: 4x13=52 cm^2
Middle: 5x8=40 cm^2
Bottom: 21x10=210 cm^2

(5 is the width of the middle piece. You get it from subtracting. 21-8-8=5. 13 is the width of the top piece. 5+8=13)

52+40+210
=302 cm^2
So your answer is 302 square centimetres.
