Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to create two equations for each company and then set them equal to each other. The keywords base fee means you will pay this amount regardless, so this amount stays constant and it will be the constant in the equation. The other keyword is per. Per will link the variable with the coefficient.
The first equation for company M:
y = 12x + 60
The second equation for company N:
y = 9x + 120
Set the equations equal to each other.
9x + 120 = 12x + 60
Solve for x. I am going to subtract 9x from both sides first.
9x - 9x + 120 = 12x -9x +60
120 = 3x +60
Now, I will subtract 60 from both sides.
120 - 60 = 3x + 60 - 60
60 = 3x
Finally, I will divide both sides by 3
60/3 = 3x/3
x = 20
20 is how many guests it will take for the total cost to be the same.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Segment ST is half and RS is the other half. RT is the whole line so adding ST and RS will get you RT. 4x-7+3x-8=4x. solve for x which will get you 5. Replace the x with 5 in 4x (for segment RT) will get you an answer of 20 for the whole line.
Andrea can cut 4 1/2 (or 4.5) inch pieces from her original piece.
18/4 = 4.5

On the first day she wen from 934 - 16 pages. Then everyday after that means it would x - 16 pages = PL (PL = Pages Left) so the answer is x - 16 = PL
Answer:
1. 6
2.
pennies = 9
nickels = 5
quaters = 5
dimes = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
18/3 = 6
as we know that there are 18 scoops, and 3 per icecream, we can divide the two to get the number of ice creams
2.
5n
#n = #q; #q = 2#d, this is a simple ratio, you just plug in the variables to get
5n = 5q = 10d = 15 coins
24 - 15 = 9 pennies
pennies = 9
nickels = 5
quaters = 5
dimes = 10
