You can use models to estimate percent questions by estimating the locations of 50%, 75%, 40%, 6%, and 65% on the model..
Answer:
Number of cinammon = 12
Number of chocolate = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Cost of Cinnamon candle , c = $3.50
Cost of chocolate candle , d = $2.50
Total amount raised, T = $94.50
d = 2c - 3
Total amount = (cost of Cinnamon * number sold) + (cost of chocolate * number sold)
94.50 = (3.50 * c) + (2.50 * (2c-3))
94.50 = 3.50c + 5c - 7.5
94.50 = 8.50c - 7.5
94.50 + 7.5 = 8.50c
102 = 8.50c
c = 102 / 8.50
c = 12
d = 2c - 3
d = 2(12) - 3
d = 24 - 3
d = 21
No, because when combining like terms with exponents, you only add/subtract the exponent above
